In some cases you may want to remove an application entirely from your phone. If you are a bit tech-savvy you can enable USB debugging, plug your phone to the computer, install ADB (android debugger) and the remove the APK (best case) or if that's not possible, totally disable it for your user.

Here's the command to do it for Google's password manager, for instance:

adb uninstall --user 0 com.android.credentialmanager

This is one of those that cannot be removed completely, only disabled.

@Tutanota great post! I'd like to add:

– and consider Fairphone w eOS (or the equivalent) next time you get a new phone.
