Tab 3 app "TouchWiz"

[hytrogen]

Hi team,
Just wondering what the hell this TouchWiz app is that seemed to be installed by Samsung on some update recently?? I'm not a junk fan & disabled it which basically gives notice now that "it has stopped unfortunately".
I haven't installed any custom ROM on the device, still have it mostly generic with sluggish KitKat..
Any advice, apart from flashing & rooting, would be appreciated

"TouchWiz" is the name that Samsung give to their customisation and the Android user interface. I don't know about an app that's simply called "TouchWiz", but "TouchWiz Home" is Samsung's launcher (the app that provides the desktop and app drawer unless you are using a third party launcher instead).

Thanks Hadron, I now can't un-default an app, like web browser and I think it's related to this TouchWiz because when I go into settings\default apps I can't revert back to a previous one I used..

Re-enable touchwhiz and if you've never heard of something, ask before disabling it. [emoji217]
