README: Remove YouTube using ADB

Prerequisites

  1. Ensure adb (Android Debug Bridge) is installed:

    sudo apt update && sudo apt install adb -y   # Debian/Ubuntu
    sudo pacman -S android-tools                # Arch Linux
    sudo dnf install android-tools              # Fedora
  2. Enable USB Debugging on your Android device:

    • Go to Settings > About phone.
    • Tap Build number multiple times until you see "You are now a developer!"
    • Go to Developer options and enable USB Debugging.

Usage

  1. Connect your Android device to the Linux computer via USB.
  2. Run the Bash script:
    chmod +x adb_delete_youtube.sh
    ./adb_delete_youtube.sh

What This Script Does

  • Checks if adb is installed.
  • Lists connected devices.
  • Uninstalls YouTube (com.google.android.youtube) for the current user.
  • Reboots the device to apply changes.

Alternative: Reinstall YouTube

If you ever want to reinstall YouTube, use:

adb shell cmd package install-existing com.google.android.youtube
