Cancel weekly download of games

Look through your all apps for something called, app selector.  Disable it.

It's not called "App Selector." Maybe it is called different things on different phones. You must be referring to the application called "T-Mobile App Experience." I was also sure it had to do with that application, but when I search through it, I cannot find anything to do with games. Surely there must be a solution other than just uninstalling things. There must be a way to just opt-out. They really need to fix this. I will try deleting this application too and hope it works, but I have a feeling it won't. I regret ever pressing yes when it first asked me.

I regret pressing yes too!  Nothing but stupid games that nobody wants.  There has to be a way to opt out of the effing thing.  I tried disabling app selector (it was called that on my S22+)  If you find out how to opt out please keep us posted!  I have been grasping at straws for the answer.  

I can't find anything called "App Selector" which most people seem to have. Ha ha so strange. My phone came with no such thing! So weird. Well, I'll try doing some more searching around later to see what I can find. Someone might even already have the answer, but probably won't even see this blog until it's too late. Lol. I'm sure we'll figure it out. Better yet, maybe we will get lucky and T-Mobile will suddenly decide to cancel this option and terminate the sending of automatic games, yay haha! :D

It won't show up in the same area as all of your installed apps. You have to go under settings and then apps. I just uninstalled it. They really need to give you an option to OPT-OUT though...

I agree! I'd like to find out how to stop this as well!

I found the app selector and have disabled it.  We will see if it works.  Thanks for the tip!! 

No, I don't. I'm pretty sure the Google Play Pass is something entirely different. I already tried looking there too. I think this has to do with T-Mobile probably. Because it was a pink colored application that asked me if I would like a free game downloaded automatically each week to try and I just pressed yes because I thought maybe it could be good games too, but then realized it was dumb games like Candy Crush style games. But the annoying thing is that the games will just keep downloading every week and piling up and taking space if you don't immediately uninstall them. Until there is a way to OPT-OUT, which I cannot seem to find anywhere I have looked. I have a Samsung Galaxy S20 or 21 or something. S20 Plus, I think. When the game downloads every week, the pop-up notification is pink. Pink means T-Mobile. If it was Google Play then it would definitely not be pink. You know what I mean? Lol.

I also thought maybe it's this thing called T-Mobile Play. Like "Google Play." But it turns out that T-Mobile Play is to play TV channels... not games. I'm really not sure why it isn't simple enough to OPT-OUT. If they've invented a new quick and easy way to automatically download free games to people's phones every week, then you'd think it would have been even much easier to invent an opting out button/system to go along with it. I mean, where do the games even come from then? They definitely come from Google Play because Google Play runs all the Android downloading. So how come in the Google Play settings or wherever there isn't a "weekly games" tab or something? I already checked. But I must have missed it. Right? It must be right under my nose, either that, or there is no actual way yet to opt the f**k out! :)

Do you have a Google play pass?

How about an app called Epic. They offer a free weekly game.
