I just did a fresh install of Elementary OS 6 Odin and I installed apps that I need and uninstalled these I don't need, so I uninstalled Epiphany and Camera app from AppCenter. After few hours I realised I still have these apps in Application Menu...
I tried sudo apt-get autoremove
, I also tried sudo apt-get remove epiphany-browser
. It doesn't work. I don't have these apps in /usr/share/applications
or ~/.local/share/applications
. When I try to uninstall them using Application Menu I get the popup saying
Program status is not set as Installed in AppCenter for package: Web Browser for GNOME
. Anyone have a fix for this?

Elementary has moved to a new app format - Flatpak. This means that apt commands won't work. To view all Flatpak apps, use flatpak list
. To uninstall an app, use flatpak uninstall [app name]
. For example flatpak uninstall org.gnome.Epiphany
should uninstall Epiphany/Web browser and flatpak uninstall io.elementary.camera
should remove the Camera app.
