How do I get Copilot off my Android phone?

This is absurd. It can be turned off on desktop Windows but to do it on a phone requires a degree in Computers. I dont use excel or word Office on my phone so I'm going to uninstall 365 and get an alternative email client.

Good job Microsoft. You've managed to piss people off to the point where they dont want your products. because you forced an addon on them and it made the main product less productive (Microsoft Products have generally been getting less user friendly and productive over the past several years).

As for Microsoft advertising this as free, thats complete BS. Microsoft automatically changes your subscription to a more expensive one and charges you extra at the next subscription date. You have to go into your account and change it back to the non copilot version. To advertise this as free is illegal in Australia. Its called Bait and Switch and it is the sort of thing that conmen do. ASIC and Fair Trading should be taking Microsoft to court for false advertising. No-one else gets away with behaving like scam artists.

I think this should be referred to the Australian authorities so that Microsoft understands it is not above the law.

GLAD I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE PETER

I have the same issue. Since I reset my phone it came as an automatic update. When I click a link from my email, instead of going to a bing browser and opening it up, it goes to Copilot and it's only a one shot deal. Anything after that, it opens whatever the last link was and I have to restart my phone just to open another ink. It's useless and annoying and I want to know how to get it off if my phone permanently, but you can't find it!

Sure, private account and none of these "android" config options exist in my samsung galaxy. What a joke

Parth!

Thank you! In general, I do not like AI; it's why I left the Meta platform and why I will not use iOS. I do not trust it embedded in every facet of my technology. I'd like to think I am still a functional adult who can create my own content in my own words. That said - I did not like CoPilot appearing... everywhere. Microsoft office, my phone, etc.

Your instructions worked! I was able to clear the CoPilot cache on my MS account, deleted the CoPilot app and the Office 365 with CoPilot (it nicely reverted back to the non-Copilot version), and removed the hooks on my Android phone.

Some day, when I need a robot to spoon-feed me jello, perhaps I will personally rely on AI again, but until that times comes...

Cheers!
