@packer-Welcome to forum: You reached an important point, there're some useless apps on Cellphones nowadays. In the case of our network TELUS it has-I'd say more than 2-Extra apps In my "Samsung Gs4" beside those you mentioned-I got another one recently, called (Telus-Featured)
When tap it display a filter to choose OP-Systems like: Apple-Android-Blackberry-WPhone: If selected Apple it takes to iTunes -If android to Play Store,.etc. The (Telus-Featured) I find it useful. Back to unnecessary apps. Could be a strategy to eat it up the user-Data & get in overage charges.
Because all these extra apps, occupy memory space and some, works in the background like Google apps that-sum more than 10 in phones powered by Android. On top of that every week, come up with at least 10 updates, taken 2-3 mins. to installed.
YES, we can un-install some, but it's been said affect the functionality of the devices. Manufacturers should include, instead apps to clean, catcher & junk files like..One sweep, CCleaner or create one to (Add-reduce: Data consumption) I'd pay for it Hu-ha!..Ok Iet's hear opinions on this topic, from other members. Greetings from <v9>

Thanks v9 and xray, you can also download a launcher in your device from the Playstore, you'll be able to customize your device the way you like it. Feel free to download Chrome as your web browser, I use it on my s4 and it's great.
