Block apps on Samsung Galaxy S21, S21 Plus and S21 Ultra

We store more and more information on our phone , since on our devices we have the possibility of accessing different services such as the different options offered by the web, or the millions of applications that we can find in the app store..

 

 

Downloading applications is something we usually do as soon as we buy a new phone, and over time as we need them. That is why the number of apps we have installed is usually quite large.
