Android already has a storage manager, this is not necessary. For additional cleanup, google has apps on the play store such as "Files Go" which the user can choose to download instead of being forced. It's not a separate app so we can't choose to uninstall it either if we wish to use the file manager. Requires permissions which are not specified with the file manager package, instead uses a local version of permissions. The main reason, powered by tencent. I'm absolutely sure no one here trusts tencent with any of their data, and now we have it integrated into the file manager. Very poor translations throughout. Removes the large files category from the main page and instead adds it to cleanup where files are not arranged according to size. Cleanup offers options to delete all files in a category, which can cause new users to accidentally delete a lot of important files. This is undoubtedly bloatware, which is against the core principle of OxygenOS, they even advertise it as a selling point. https://twitter.com/oneplus/status/1123240597777567748

With the latest open beta 17/9 for OnePlus 6/6T, a change has been made to the file manager that enables a "file cleanup" feature. A lot of users depend on the OnePlus file manager for managing their storage and this addition is detrimental to the experience.This code is only activated for OnePlus 6/6T in the Indian region, for now. There is no clue as to what devices and regions this will expand to next.Here's the privacy policy for the feature:The entire thing can be read here: https://i.gyazo.com/fb691466692417fe4c41f075354d9742.jpg The policy states that all data is being sent to a Tencent server located in Singapore. The data is protected by GDPR because OnePlus operates in Europe and adhere to the same laws in every region.However, this does not mean that your data is protected against leaks and mistakes done by Tencent, which have also occured several times in the past, an example- https://www.bloomberg.com/news/arti...uan-will-probe-reports-of-huge-user-data-leak Another concern is how the feature is handled, it uses a local version of permissions rather than depending upon Android permission controls.The feature itself is not functionally a good idea, it allows you to clean all large files, less frequently used apps at once, which can be accidentally deleted by someone with less knowledge because they trust the app to clear all useless items.The following are the reasons why I want the removal of this feature and anything similar to it:I hope OnePlus understands that this is a step in the wrong direction, which they have been taking for a while now, and remember the roots of OxygenOs. I still prefer it over any custom rom and I've never even unlocked the bootloader on my 6, this comes from a guy who used to flash 20 different roms on a single device back in the day.
