What is that pre installed "Information" app?

[DarkAlpha.Sete]

So I have this pré installed app named "Information", it occupies 56 KB.
What is that thing used for? Do I keep it or uninstall it?

(it's not about storage, it's more that seeing something that looks useless is messing my head)

Uninstall it

Well I would expect a reason for that, but I guess a reply like that also works...

Thanks anyways.

I said so because i never seen such app on my any of the Honor phones till date and that seems to be a result of installing as any other app, launcher etc so quickly mentioned to uninstall rather waiting.

I uninstalled it.

On which phone did you find this?

 

[chrisleLP]

Honor 8 lite.

Honor 8 lite.

You own 6X, 5x, 7 and 8 lite all? Any other devices?

Haha. Nope. I just own a 6X. My cousin has 5X, and college friend has 8 Lite. I tested 7 at some store that sells 2nd hand devices.

That app has a blue icon with Honor logo at the center. Uninstalled it too.

That's is weird, mine didn't have any icon. It had the stock green Droid logo...

It's the Emergency-Information provided at the Lockscreen.

If you don't need it, delete it ??

It was different for me. Wheb launched, it would launch Chrome redirecting to Honor's site. Emergency Information app shouldn't be easily uninstallable.

I uninstalled it like any app and I don't have root... Everything is full stock...

What is happening then?

For some reason after unlocking bootloader, the app was gone.

Didn't fully understand what you mean, but if you are stating that I did unlock the bootloader, no I did not. I didn't mess a single thing in this device, didn't even had the courage to use firmware finder lol.

Sorry if I didn't understand you well.
