Google to remove many pre-loaded apps, give users the choice

Google is planning to remove bloatware with its next - the Marshmallow update. This is the set of pre-loaded or bunched apps you get whenever you buy an android / google based smartphone or tab. And since they take up memory space and cannot be deleted, this is like part of a compulsory syllabus.

Consumer is the King!

And now finally, the syllabus is about to change - in consumers' interest. Google may remove many of these apps (phones will not come pre-loaded with it, but users are free to download them later) freeing quite a bit of memory space in the process. And also providing its users a choice.

This makes for good thinking. Whether the apps are useful or not, dumping something on users without any way out, was truly unfair. And Google should know. Instead of us being showered with thousands of meaningless results, it brought a search engine that gave us what we wanted. 

Although considering that we are in an era where devices come with 16GB/ 64GB memory (God knows what people do with it!), the extra memory space is not really much for smartphone buyers these days. But the matter is of the principle. What is right, should come through, sooner or later. Hope others are listening too.
