Android 14 has added APIs that allow apps to display key battery details such as manufacturing date, date of first use, charging policy, state of health, cycle count, and charging status. An open-source app called Batt can show the number of charging cycles undertaken on the phone, and more details can be accessed by granting the requisite BATTERY_STATS permission through ADB. The feature is not yet ready for public release, but the existence of the APIs indicates that Google is working on it and intends to release it someday.

Bloatware apps on Android phones can be uninstalled using the Settings app or the Google Play Store. However, if the app is integrated with the system, it can only be disabled. Android Debug Bridge (ADB) is a powerful command-line tool that can remove such apps, but it requires downloading files, enabling USB debugging, and executing command lines. ADB can permanently delete the app from the phone's memory.
