Why

Step 1 of 4

Why you can't delete apps

Uninstall Protection stops every app on your phone from being deleted, so it can't be used to sneak LeadMeNot off. Apps you try to remove go to the App Library instead.

LeadMeNot app: Open the Block & Monitor tab

Step 2 of 4

Open the Block & Monitor tab

Tap Block & Monitor in the bar at the bottom of the app.

LeadMeNot app: Switch off Uninstall Protection

Step 3 of 4

Switch off Uninstall Protection

Tap the Block switch next to Uninstall Protection. This goes through your Safe Wall.
