How do I get Copilot off my Android phone? I didn't want Copilot taking over my phone screen and DEMANDING that I login to Microsoft Copilot AI to continue using my phone. I use Excel on my phone, Microsoft 365 installed itself without permission like a virus and now I have to fight for control of my phone every time someone sends me a spreadsheet. Copilot doesn't exist as an app that can be disabled. It has no control panels or switches. It's a malicious unwanted program. By definition a malware.

    Wow.

    I have to print that out and jump through the hoops to get rid of something I never wanted!

    Why not give us a choice?

    Oh sorry, my bad. I forgot, we're the product not the customer.

    How silly of me!

    I just figured out how to remove the M365 Copilot annoying sign-up App from my Android phone. All of a sudden now, every time I tried to open a text file on my phone with any kind of extension, it would go straight to sign in page of M365 Copilot. I couldn't even choose what app I wanted to use to open the file, so I couldn't open my file, no matter what, unless I signed-up with this app, and I DON'T WANT TO.

    Microsoft held me hostage to my options. Finally I found a way to get rid of this parasitical program/app and it's insisting spam. I must say as many here stated. This is pure hostile spam and criminal behavior to push their product like this and force people to use it without clear and easy options to make it disappear from their phone.

    TO REMOVE M365 COPILOT FROM YOUR ANDROID PHONE:

    Settings / Apps / Your Apps (in small print) filter on the right side / Show System Apps (slide switch ON) / OK / scroll down to M365 COPILOT / scroll down to App details in store / (this will open Google Play store) UNINSTALL.

    Another way to do it is:

    Go to the Google App Store, search M365 COPILOT and UNINSTALL

    Then, take a deep breath and ENJOY your victory!

    It is easy, try uninstalling microsoft 365 and copilot. And if you are on samsung, clear storage on appcloud and disable it.

    I agree. MS modified my phone with out my consent. Added useless Copilot and removed features I have been working with and liked. Couldn't get rid of Copilot until I removed MS launcher and MS 365 app from my phone. If I need an office app I Launch it individually.

    MS doesn't pay attention to the user and then they wonder why W10 is more popular then W11.

    Eventually I will replace all my Win devices with Android.

    WELL I JUST UNINSTALLED THE MS 365 APP LETS SEE WHAT HAPPENS
