why is T-Mobile downloading apps without my permission?
T-Mobile play in the app selector have been sending me notification and have been downloaded without my permission or my initiation several times this week and I have uninstalled them several times and they keep coming back on top of that Facebook an app that I haven't used since 2014 keeps being downloaded along with these two and I want to know why or this will escalate because this is a massive violation of privacy.
I found a solution. I went into the settings where it shows every app on the phone and deleted "app selector" and disabled "T-Mobile play". Play wouldn't let me uninstall, but I did uninstall all updates and disabled it. That was a week ago and I haven't had an issue since.
The only thing Tmobile has downloaded without my permission is Scam Shied. I never had a problem with the Facebook app being downloaded, never had it on my phone.
Also in the T&C’s you agreed they can do this.
