Question

How do I remove Shopping app

Nov 15, 2013 11:55PM PST

I have a Samsung Galaxy Nexus. The Google Shopping app has been discontinued, but it won't uninstall. If I accidentally select it, it crashes and continues to give me system errors until I restart. How do I get rid of it? It doesn't show up in Google play and there is no uninstall option if I go through Settings.

They modified this one so the usual does not apply. If you get tired of a maker's OS meddling head to XDA forums and see if anyone issued a new ROM.

If you plan to stay with Samsung's fiddling, then see if they have any updates.
