Not a FB user, but actually it can't be uninstalled.
I had an Android phone with no FB (I probably deleted it after I got the phone), and after the system upgrade it got installed without me agreeing to it. And I can't seem to undo it.
- enjo 11y agoTo be clear that's because the FB binary is baked into the firmware. Buy a better Android phone that doesn't stuff your default install with nonsense.

- khedoros 11y ago"can't" is only relative to your level of determination. Deleting Facebook and other bundled apps was my original reason to root my first phone.
- wongarsu 11y agoFB is often baked into the OS image, but any reasonable recent Android (4.1 an newer?) still allows you to disable those preinstalled apps. For all intents and purposes that's the same as uninstalling, you just can't get it out of the app manager.
- wooptoo 11y agoYou can disable the app entirely. It will not be removed from the phone but it won't bug you ever again. Go to settings > Apps and select your app.
