Delete apps from M5S-Core

teiafra

Hi,
how is it possible to remove some of the apps listed on the device, without wiping the entire device?
I found [here] (https://forum.m5stack.com/topic/2076/m5stack-delete-app-from-app-list-uiflow-v1-5-4/3) some suggestions but it did not work, as the device complains with error.
After loading some UIFlow codes, I'd like to delete them from the device

You can connect to your device trought a terminal and type/send commands manually (if you have uiflow/micropython firmware on your device)

try these commands:

import os library
import os

list current directory
os.listdir()

change current directory to directory_name
os.chdir("directory_name")

delete filename.py in current directory
os.remove("filename.py")

uiflow store python scripts in apps directory

With the software 'ThonnyPython IDE for beginners'
https://thonny.org/ you can simply delete the apps

Thanks,
later on I found that in UIFlow (top right corner) there is a button "Manager" that, when pressed, opens a Resource Manager window with a double usage: Images and Blockly. If you select Blockly you get the software app inventory that allows you also to delete the app you want.

Great tip! I always forget about the resource manager. That is another way to remove apps from the device.
