Is there any way to tell if they're doing stuff and restrict them? With or without root?
I think foss apps like Netguard and Trackercontrol would be useful to use if they connect to the net.
The same apps can be used to restrict connections.
Android app preferences can be used to restrict background data and background battery usage too.
And if you want to remove unwanted apps that can't be directly uninstalled, you can use the Android debloater.
I wish I knew, I gave up on figuring it out and decided it would be easier to just delete all the apps and only reinstall them briefly when I need them.
