Like many others, I find ADB to be an excellent utility when I intend to get rid of bloatwares / system-apps-that-I-don’t need from my Android phone.

The only caveat being that ADB is to be run only on a separate device (Windows, macOS or Linux), and my Android phone has to be connected to it in USB-debugging mode.

Not sure if this is a dumb question or not - but Is there any ADB equivalent that I can run straight in my Android phone to remove bloatware from the same Android phone ?

Thanks in advance !

    shizuku + rish gives you a persistent adb shell and even 3rd-party app integration

      Yeah I use this with Termux. Takes a little fiddling, but it works great afterwards.
