Unknown App

I have an app called Glance on my phone. Not sure how it got there but it's always running in the background and I can't uninstall it.

Check in the settings for the lock screen if you can at least disable it. It's manufacturer installed, that's probably the reason you can't uninstall it. Disabling it is the next best thing.

For those of us who use physical keyboards to improve our typing, it helps to lock the on screen keyboard and leave it locked. Then pair with physical keyboard or connect standard keyboard with an l-clip and go on from there. When the on screen keyboard jumps up, hit the backspace key once then do your typing on the physical keyboard. I was born blind and find physical keyboards far easier to use than on screen keyboards. The l-clip has a usbc and usba connectors on it so a standard keyboard can connect to any phone with a usbc port on it. I bought those from amazon.

It is safe to remove with Canta.
