The facebook app was already built in and installed already upon purchase of this phone and no option to uninstall it just disable. Is there a reason why? I bought this phone in 2019 and since then facebook app cannot be uninstalled.

Android debug bridge. If you're unfamiliar, this might help: Thread '[GUIDE] How to remove Facebook Services and other bloatware WITHOUT Root' https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/guide-how-to-remove-facebook-services-and-other-bloatware-without... Instructions are for a different phone but it should work for Sammy or any Android phones too

Hello there! It's because Facebook app comes preinstalled on your phone as a system app. You won't be able to uninstall that, but you can disable that. Go to Settings > Applications manager. Find Facebook from the list and select it. 😊 Hope to have helped you. Be sure to click " ✓ Accept as Solution" when you find an answer that works for you.  Stay safe and have a nice day ahead!
