Pre-installed apps, on the other hand, can only be disabled. While there’s a way to uninstall pre-installed apps, that’s not what we’re going to cover here. 

If you want to learn how to uninstall or disable apps on a Pixel 7, here’s what you should do: 

1. Pull up the app drawer and look for the app you’re having problems with.

   
   You have to swipe up from the bottom of the screen to pull up the app drawer. 

2. Tap and hold the app’s icon until the options show.

   
   It will take just a couple of seconds before you can actually see the options. In this tutorial, we will be using Instagram as an example. 

3. Tap the App info icon.

   
   It’s the lowercase “i” inside a circle. 

4. On the next screen, tap Uninstall.

   
   This will initiate the uninstallation process and there will be a small pop up window. 

5. Tap OK to confirm.

   
   As soon as you do that, the app will immediately be uninstalled. 

6. To disable a pre-installed app, you just have to follow the same procedure and tap Disable instead.

   
   The Uninstall option for third-party apps will be replaced with Disable. 

7. Another way to uninstall or disable an app is by going through the Settings menu.

   
   So just launch the Settings app. 

8. Tap Apps and then select All apps.

   
   This will show you the list of the apps and services in your phone including pre-installed ones. 

9. Scroll down to find the app you’re having problems with and tap on it.

   
   It will bring you the screen where you can find the Uninstall or Disable option.
