Like many others, I find ADB to be an excellent utility when I intend to get rid of bloatwares / system-apps-that-I-don’t need from my Android phone.

The only caveat being that ADB is to be run only on a separate device (Windows, macOS or Linux), and my Android phone has to be connected to it in USB-debugging mode.

Not sure if this is a dumb question or not - but Is there any ADB equivalent that I can run straight in my Android phone to remove bloatware from the same Android phone ?

Thanks in advance !

You can use LADB, but it is not free unless you compile the app yourself.

You can use Bugjaeger instead, which can achieve the same thing (just a bit trickier to use). It is free on the Play Store but has ads. You can use an ad blocker in the background though, it’s not a big problem.

shizuku + rish gives you a persistent adb shell and even 3rd-party app integration

Yeah I use this with Termux. Takes a little fiddling, but it works great afterwards.

LADB should do the trick, it’s also available from the playstore.

I think running Shizuku and then using Package Manager , you can achieve what you are after.

THIS! Shizuku via Wireless ADB and then one of the many ADB apps in the play store! Loving it!
