Hello, Android community! Let's kick off a discussion on app organization and decluttering 📱🧹. How often do you clean up your app lists, and what are some apps you have recently removed?

We all tend to accumulate various apps over time, and it's helpful to review and prune the list regularly. So, how do you approach this task?

Do you have a set schedule, or do you clean up whenever you notice your app list getting too cluttered?
Do you use any tools or techniques to figure out what to remove?
Are there particular types of apps that you find yourself removing more frequently?
Is there any feature or functionality you wish were built into Android OS?

Feel free to share any tips or strategies you employ to keep your app list tidy.

Typically whenever I notice an app I decide to delete or every time I do a fresh install, which is when I get a new phone or a new version of Android comes out
