Is it ok to disable these apps

I disabled some apps on my SP ,but I don't know if it is safe to disable them. Can anybody list the apps which I can safely disable and uninstall?

Here are photos of the apps I had disabled

If one of these apps is needed , please tell me. If there is a good list of apps to disable or uninstall please write it.

Thank U.

It's hard for anyone here to say which apps that are OK for you to disable, since it depends on how you want to use your phone. If an app cannot be disabled/uninstalled, it's an app that is needed by the system.

But some of the apps that you have disabled, may be needed for another function in the phone to make it work to 100%.

Thank U for your kindness and respond, but please can U specify which apps shouldn't I disable. And if U can tell me what is each one used for. My phone is still working fine till now, but U said there are some apps I shouldn't disable. Kindly tell me what are these apps and thank U. Have a good day and night.

I said, that some apps may be needed for another function in the phone in order to make it work to 100%. Thereby, it's hard for us to say which apps you shouldn't disable since it depends on how you want to use the phone.

For example, if you disable Google Play store you will not be able to update or download any applications.

Thank U so much for your kindness. But I don't use google play store because it always says : unfortunately google play store has stopped. This is why I don't use it, I use 1mobile market instead of it. Thank U again.

Thank U so much. But i'm wondering if there are some sort of list for apps that I can safely disable without affecting my phone's performance. Thank U and be patient with me.

I have disabled several apps safely, you can disable most Google apps, including Hangouts,Gmail,Magazines,Music,Games, Books,Maps,YouTube, Plus,etc...Keep google play/services & chrome on for play store and internet browsing access. Social life can also be disabled. Facebook is a big performance culprit, disable if unused.

If you got anymore unused apps just post the name and I'll tell you whether it's safe to be disabled.
