How to have unused apps not take up resources Is there a way I can have unused apps not take up resources?  Especially Internal memory and other resources not on Sd card.

I am already using Link2SD to move what I can to SD.

I know you can back them up and re install, I was hoping for something easier, like avoiding autostart.
You can disable these apps. This way the apps will not be running and won't be consuming any resources. You have not mentioned your Android version, so here's how you can disable an app in Jelly Bean, if you have another version of Android just look around the setting may be somewhere else.

Settings -&gt; Apps -&gt; All -&gt; Select the app you want to disable -&gt; Disable


You have also not mentioned what app you are talking about. Remember, this only works for system apps, and they will still take up space on internal memory. If you have a downloaded app, you may have to uninstall it.
