It’s a known fact that smartphones get slower with use and this is caused by installed apps. While these apps may be useful and hard to do away with, the negative effects they have on our devices can make one consider removing them. For instance, Facebook is one app almost everyone has but it’s one of the most power-hungry Android apps ever.
AVG, an anti-virus maker, recently released a list of apps you should probably consider uninstalling from your device. It’s a huge list containing most of our favorite apps and games.

Top 10 performance draining apps that run at startup
These apps automatically start running the moment you boot your device and as expected, Facebook tops the list here followed by
Google Play Service. Blackberry Messenger and Instagram too make the list. It’s interesting seeing four Facebook apps (Facebook, Messenger, Facebook Pages Manager and Instagram) on this list. Are you willing to do away with these apps to boost your device performance? I doubt that. Here's the full list:
1) Facebook
2) Google Play Services
3) BBM
4) Instagram
5) Messenger
6) ChatON (Voice & video chat)
7) Facebook Pages Manager
cool The Weather Channel
9) KakawTalk
10) WhatsApp Messenger

Top 10 performance draining apps run by user
These apps too are performance killers but unlike the ones listed above, they do not run automatically. They will never be initiated unless you run the apps and they do not run in the background. Here's the full list:
1) SnapChat
2) Amazon Shopping UK
3) Spotify Music
4) LINE - Free Calls & Messages
5) Clean Master
6) Samsung WatchON (Video)
7) Netflix
cool BBC News
9) Amazon Shopping Global
10) Microsoft Outlook

Top 10 battery drainers that run at startup
If you have these apps installed, they may be draining your battery even if you don’t use them all the time. They automatically start running the moment you boot your device. Again, your favorites apps (Facebook, Messenger, BBM and WhatsApp) make the list. Here's the full list:
1) Android Firmware Updater
2) Beaming Service For Samsung
3) Security Policy Updater
4) ChatON
5) Google Play Services
6) Facebook
7) BBM
cool WhatsApp Messenger
9) Weather & Click Widget Android
10) WeChat

Top 10 data traffic hogs that run at startup
These are the top apps that contribute the most to your monthly internet bill. If you realize you’re exhausting your allocated data bundle before expiry almost every time, these apps may be responsible. Here's the full list:
1) Facebook
2) Yahoo! Japan
3) Antivirus & Security
4) The Weather Channel
5) Instagram
6) IHeart Radio
7) Google Play Services
cool APUS Launcher
9) GroupOn - Daily Deals, Coupons
10) WeatherBug

Top 10 data traffic hogs run by user
These apps too contribute heavily to your data usage but unlike the ones above that automatically start running when you turn on your device, these apps are usually started by the user. Here's the full list:
1) Netflix
2) SnapChat
3) Tumblr
4) BBC News
5) Clean Master- Boost & AppLock
6) Samsung WatchON - Video
7) Spotify Music
cool Photo Editor by Aviary
9) Microsoft Outlook
10) Tinder

Top 10 storage eaters run by user
These apps eat up storage whenever they are run by the user. What this implies is that is your device has a low storage, running multiple of these apps will make your device start to lag or even hang. Here you'll see apps like Amazon shopping, chrome, Spotify, etc Here's the full list:
1) Spotify Music
2) Chrome
3) Aillis - Filters & Stickers
4) LINE: Free Calls & Messages
5) Amazon Shopping UK
6) TripAdviser - Hotels, Flights
7) Amazon Shopping Global
cool SnapChat
9) Clean Master - Boost & AppLock
10) Photo Editor by Aviary

This whole list highlights some apps we already suspect but then, you shouldn’t go ahead uninstalling these apps because AVG says they’re bad for your phone. Some of the listed apps are actually system applications which your device depends on to properly function.
It’s also worth mentioning that your phone might be equivalent to nothing but a piece of brick without some of these apps. Who wants to uninstall WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook and BBM anyway?

I can do without most of those Apps you listed. Last thing I'd ever have on my device is a Facebook App.


What about UC browser. It consumes lot of space too.

Anyone that recently downloaded yahoo mail app from android will testify that none of those mentioned app can compete with yahoo as most app that not only drain battery but also hinder memory performance. How can one explain a situation where an app at inception of download read 15MB but just after 24hrs it reached 1.5GB. Thereby making nonsense of the memory, intense heat and snail walk performance. I wonder how single app will take 1.5GB in a storage of just 4GB. Yahoo mgt need to review the app. Worst still the app can't be move to SD storage

Which one be Kwakwa talk again?

Lol.
Actually Its "Kakao Talk" a Social App from South Korea, but other Countries too can make use of it.
Its not too Interesting to use in the "Sense that. If you don't get your friends username, you would be unable to use it, and thus it makes it Boring for you. unless if your contacts are also on the App.

Thank God you also know about the frequent update. Wasting data twice a week for update without any use.

I didn't uninstalled it because of that, I uninstalled it last week because it drains my battery too much
