There is no option for deletion for this app. Its draining my battery, and I read various posts they said that this app spy location and do lot of other stuff. I’m really confused after noticing it and reading such stuff. https://www.reddit.com/r/androidapps/comments/yyv09e/private_compute_services_app/ https://r1.community.samsung.com/t5/galaxy-a/android12-private-compute-services/td-p/15268407 https://techwiti.com/private-compute-services/ https://www.reddit.com/r/pixel_phones/comments/xjbtka/private_compute_service_fails_to_update/ What should I do, I tried to disable it but it again activates when I restart phone?
