How to turn off Gemini on Android — and why you should
-
It says to turn it off you open the Gemini app on your Android phone and change some settings. I uninstalled the Gemini app completely. I wonder if it's still running on my account somehow.
As far as I know, on Pixel phones it’s integrated. Discovered that my work phone (Pixel 6) suddenly has it, I’ve never installed it, and I can’t remove it.

Alternatively:
- Install GrapheneOS
- Never concern yourself with invasive software again
I've never even seen Gemini on my phone.
Yeah. If you never install software that is.
A C64 doesn't run invasive software either.

Yes. A GrapheneOS device and a Commodore 64 are basically the same thing.

nobody has to use an operating system made by an advertisement company.
Except for people with locked boot loaders. They really are trapped in some corporate hellscape. That stuff should just be illegal.

My device's bootloader can be unlocked in 5 minutes, yet it's not on any of these lists you shared

GrapheneOS without any invasive apps is really bare-bones and limited, that's what I wanted to say using hyperbole, but I guess figures of speech are too advanced for some people.

So are we just casually mentioning Graphene in every Android article like Linux is mentioned in every Windows article? How many new phones actually support Graphene?

None of my work apps nor my banks app are compatible with Graphene. We need legislation at this point.

Pretty much. For all the same reasons. Both of them solve all sorts of problems.

I'm aware, thank you.
