I have the opposite issue as No Fairphone App on my new FP4 - #11 by Discostu36 .
How can i remove the app ? Since it’s not possible to move apps around when listing all apps or to create folders i got the fairphone app and one from my carrier which i both do not want to see at all as i just never use them.
Is there a way to do this ?
You can hide it - long press the My Fairphone icon, go to app info, pick ‘disable’!

… I believe this was grayed out for me… But maybe I just miss read, will try later!

On the FP3 it can be disabled, I’d be surprised if this wasn’t the case on the FP4
Short of that, you could try using ADB on a computer to remove it?

Regarding the above, see post 2 in the following topic where I removed the fairphone app

Hi I’m just getting my head around using ADB on a Raspberry pi (Buster OS)
It has been many years since I used ADB on a Windows to Samsung.
The phone does not need to be rooted or OEM unlocked
It does require enabling Developer options > USB debugging
I downloaded the adb files to the Rasp-pi via terminal commands
sudo apt install android-tools-adb android-tools-adbd android-tools-fastboot android-tools-fsutils android-tools-mkbootimg
Then
Connect cable Rasp- pi USBA to FP3 USBC.
Usi…
I just checked, i can’t disable it on the FP4
Just did a software update and now i can disable it, lel sry
