How to disable the developer mode on android

Temporary disconnection

It is usually not necessary to fully remove the developer mode, it is enough just to turn off all the options for this type of OS operation. On the tenth Android, the operation is as follows:

1. Open the "Settings" and go to the "System" section.



2. Click "Advanced" and go to the "For Developers".



3. At the very top of the list of parameters, the switch "Included" must be switched on it.



4. The switch will become gray, the name will be changed to "disabled", and the entire list of options will be hidden - this means that you turned off the developer mode.

This method, in fact, allows only to disable all the corresponding settings, whereas directly the mode item itself remains available.

Full removal

If you need to remove the mode from system settings, the algorithm is as follows:

1. Open the "Settings" - "Applications and Notifications" - "Show all applications".



2. Find the "Settings" position in the list (it may also be called "Settings", "Parameters" and similar in meaning) and go to it.



3. On the component page, tap on the "Storage and Cash" item.



4. Select the "Clear Storage" option.

   

   Confirm the operation.



5. After deleting data, the settings application will restart - re-open it and check the performance - the position "for developers" should be the abyss from the list.
