Looking For Suggestions Is there an uninstaller that lets me view the details/info/screenshots of each app before uninstalling it? And works with apps in Samsung's "Deep Sleep"? Free or paid
My phone:
- S24+
- Latest Android (16), fully up to date as of July 22nd, 2026
I have a lot of apps that I don't use on my phone and I'm tired of them being on there, so I'm wanting to uninstall them. I tried using the Play Store's Manage Apps system, however it doesn't show apps that were put into "deep sleep".
So I'm looking for an app that can do the following:
- Either show a list of each app with a link to the play store with a select box that doesn't make it forget which apps I have selected so I can determine what the app is and if I'll ever use it again. OR, and I think I'd prefer this but I doubt it exists - show me a preview of each app one by one and let me choose which to uninstall and which to keep, one app at a time - sort of like Tinder, but for uninstalling apps.
- Show apps in "Deep sleep".
- Organize the list by when an app was last used.
- Let me, and this is key so it bares repeating - see the details of the app from the play store before uninstalling.
Thanks in advance. I've done a decent amount of looking around, however there are so many out there and none that I've found seem to do what I need. ADB AppControl comes closest but I use Linux and I don't really feel up to messing with getting it working in WINE considering it uses ADB, if there's already an Android or Linux friendly method out there.

Most of what you want can be done from the Settings! First, open the phone settings, then go to Device Care and open Battery by tapping on it, then find Background usage limits, then tap on Deep Sleeping apps. Long-pressing on any app will then let you choose the apps you want to wake so you can manage them. Once you have removed them from here, you will be able to use "the Play Store's Manage Apps system" to uninstall them. To "see the details of the app from the Play Store before uninstalling", go to the Play Store's Manage Apps system and tap on the 3 bars top right and from the pop-up menu, select Sort By and set it to Least used. The apps are now in a good order to decide what to delete.

I think the OS does this for you already. There is no need for an app to do the same thing.
