The question is;
Why do you want to do that?
This isn’t a gmail app or a yahoo mail app or any other app, but rather the means of connecting all your emails accounts in one mobile email app.
However, some Samsung phone users don’t like the application and wants to get rid of the application. Have also seen some users looking for how do i get rid of samsung email app, let’s see if that is possible.
How possible it is to remove the samsung email app from your Samsung phone or tablet.
Possible to delete samsung email app
The answer is no. You can’t delete samsung email app from your Samsung phone or tablet as it is a pre-installed app, but rather you can only disable the Samsung email app.
The Samsung email app is a system app, and you and I know that it is not possible to delete a system app(s) cause they help in running of your mobile phone.
I’ve tried this even going to the point of rooting my phone, installing a mod ROM, but still I can’t seem delete samsung email app from my Samsung phone.
The only thing I was able to do is to disable the app from my phone, and the Samsung email app went to exile. But if to say to get rid of it permanently from my Samsung phone, it wasn’t possible at all.
For the fact that you can’t delete samsung email app on your samsung phone, let me show you how to disable the app from your phone or tablet.
How to disable samsung email app
To disable the Samsung email app on your phone or tablet is by first going to the settings app on your phone, tap and open it.
Scroll down to app and click to open, scroll down to email and tap on it. Look at the three vertical dots located at the top right corner of your screen and tap on it.
As you tap on the three vertical dots option menu, you’ll see uninstall updates.
Tap on the uninstall updates and it will do so, then after you’ll be able to disable the app from your Samsung mobile phone and tablet.
If you care to check, you’ll see that the disable button isn’t clickable until you uninstall any updates made to the Samsung email app. This is the only option you have as you can’t delete samsung email app from your mobile phone.
It is similar to deleting Google play services or the play store from your android phone, that’s isn’t possible at all. You only have the option to uninstall updates, and afterwards disable the app from your mobile phone.
This is how Samsung email app works, it is a system app and can’t be deleted no matter what even if you go ahead to remove bloating from your Samsung device, you can’t still delete samsung email app from your Samsung phone or tablet.
Again, if you don’t want to disable the Samsung email app, you can force stop the application or hibernate it completely. The app will be installed on your phone, but it will be like it is not existing at all.
Even though the Samsung email app runs in the background, it doesn’t consume much of battery and RAM so you can choose not to delete samsung email app or disable it from your phone.
Also you can optimize the email app in such a way that it won’t consume your battery enough.
To do so, go to the system app on your phone and tap to open. Scroll down to apps and also click to open.
Select the Samsung email app by tapping on Email on the listed installed apps on your Samsung phone. You’ll see where it states battery, click to open it.
Then you’ll see it is written optimize battery usage, and it will indicate whether the app is battery optimized or not. If it is not battery optimized, then go ahead to do so by tapping on it.
Doing this will bring out all your apps both battery optimized and not battery optimized, you’ll have to scroll down to Email and slide the toggle on. Then the Samsung email app is now battery optimized.
So instead of you to delete samsung email app from your Samsung phone and tablet, I recommend you to optimize the email app and it wouldn’t use much of your phone battery.
Better still uninstall updates and disable the app. Be rest assured that you can also enable the app anytime you want to do so. To do that, you have to go to the settings app, down to Samsung email app and open it.
Look below and you’ll see an option to enable the Samsung email app on your Samsung phone and tablet. Tap on the enable button and boom the email app will be enabled on your phone.
Again you can’t delete samsung email app from your Samsung mobile phone and tablet, as it is a system app. Other phone brands can do so, but Samsung phone user’s don’t have the option to delete samsung email app from their phone.
I’m sorry that’s limited and there’s nothing you can do about that other than disabling the app or hibernate it completely from your Samsung phone or tablet.
