How do I get Copilot off my Android phone? I didn't want Copilot taking over my phone screen and DEMANDING that I login to Microsoft Copilot AI to continue using my phone. I use Excel on my phone, Microsoft 365 installed itself without permission like a virus and now I have to fight for control of my phone every time someone sends me a spreadsheet. Copilot doesn't exist as an app that can be disabled. It has no control panels or switches. It's a malicious unwanted program. By definition a malware.

    None of the posted solution work for me too

    I have no M365, no outlook, nothing

    I bought a new phone and somehow copilot is baked into it up to a level i cannot delete it or even control how my physical buttons open it

    It is set to share my ON/OFF button which is the equivalent of getting raped every time i want to standby/turn off my phone

    I must be very careful how to click my power button since holding it a microsecond too long or short opens the copilot and it even starts listening to my voice, eat my data and battery and perform searches (and whatnot? training your AI?) without my consent

    I feel spied on by my phone, every time i am thinking I'm putting my screen off i am at risk of being eavesdropped by copilot

    Copilot is there, i HATE it with PASSION, but since I am the product destined to be ****r@ped by M$, a fact that i have come to live with and sadly subdued too my only choice it NOT to use it even though it creeps up everywhere

    By binding it to the ON/OFF button even THAT choice has been taken from me

    I guess the only route left to take is flashing custom firmware on my brand new phone to get rid off M$

    On a slightly related note: FU M$ and i will make it my life's goal to get rid of each and every of your "products" in my life, so custom roms and Linux on PC it is for me

    I just took it step by step:

    1)Delete your copilot from Microsoft 365 and send a direct deletion request to Microsoft to do this follow the steps below. Need to go to your account on Microsoft for these steps.

    1.1) Sign into your my account portal with your work or school account at https://myaccount.microsoft.com/

    1.2) Navigate to settings and privacy -> Privacy ->

    1.3) Under the 'Data options' navigate to copilot interaction history and select 'Delete' These steps was referenced from the following source and for further clarification on this visit: https://support.microsoft.com/office/76de8afa-5eaf-43b0-bda8-0076d6e0390f

                       *This step cleaned out the baffles so my Android would stop looking for CoPilot when it would sync.*
    

    And then to REALLY be sure, on the Android phone, look for any additional hooks:

    1. Check Admin Settings.

    2.1) On your android go to settings

    2,2) Look for "Security" or "Lock screen and security" options.

    2.3) Find and tap on "Device administrators" or a similar option.

    2.4) Check if Copilot or any related Microsoft services are listed here with admin privileges, and uncheck the box next to copilot to revoke it's permissions Alternatively also filter the settings search bar to 'Permissions' and this should hopefully filter to the apps that have admin permissions which Copilot seems to have.

    1. Go to settings -> General-> Try to find CoPilot and remove all the relevant options to disable it.

    It no longer pops up when I try and respond to Emails.

    Bagaimana cara menghapus Copilot dari ponsel Android saya? Saya tidak ingin Copilot mengambil alih layar ponsel saya dan MEMINTA saya untuk masuk ke Microsoft Copilot AI agar dapat terus menggunakan ponsel saya. Saya menggunakan Excel di ponsel saya, Microsoft 365 menginstal dirinya sendiri tanpa izin seperti virus dan sekarang saya harus berjuang untuk mengendalikan ponsel saya setiap kali seseorang mengirimi saya lembar kerja. Copilot tidak ada sebagai aplikasi yang dapat dinonaktifkan. Aplikasi ini tidak memiliki panel kontrol atau sakelar. Aplikasi ini adalah program jahat yang tidak diinginkan. Menurut definisinya, ini adalah malware.

    Saya mau menghapus Microsoft Copilot dari hape saya
