Update: Not only can I not uninstall this garbage, but now I've received an email indicating that they've had a data breach. Glad to receive the notice but I could have been better protected by BEING ALLOWED TO UNINSTALL IT; so irritating! Original Review: Bloatware I don't want and can't get rid of. it does allow me to turn it off, but it turns itself back on every few weeks. I'd give 0 stars if that were an option.

Just takes up space. I don't want it on my phone. If I had signed up for it out of curiosity, I might view it differently, but it being non-optional takes any fun right out of it. I don't want the app that's required to access this one, either, unless I've misunderstood how that app works. Update: I am aware that it can't be uninstalled and must be repeatedly disabled instead, that is my main problem with it.

Because Briefing is considered a system app, any system updates will update the app as well. You will need to disable it once more. Just open your device Settings, locate Briefing, then choose the disable option. For help, click the Contact button at flip.it/help.

flipboard has become overloaded with ads and fake news from questionable sources I can't stand to use it any more. you're hammered with ads and links to unrelated stories to the point you can't discern one from the other. I've used flipboard for many years and it was an easy to use news aggregator but it's time for me to acknowledge it's more trouble than it's worth. I will be uninstalling soon after making this review.
