    Uggh… Then there are reinstallers! Highly annoying.

    On my phone I disabled the google play store, installed FDroid and then Aurora (play store alternative of sorts). Blacklisted apps I don’t like, and also disabled auto install. Try and see if that helps if things get more annoying than usual.

    Also, get RethinkDNS (firewall) and block the adwares and apps that you don’t need internet for. Great many options in there.

      It’s my mom’s phone and I’m a significant bit of distance away from home. So, I want to make changes that are as non-intrusive as possible because she can’t really troubleshoot.
