When you launch the Amazon Store App, it asks for access to files and location. I first tried to deny, but then the program wont launch.
I agreed to files and location permissions first and later tried to remove the location permissions using the application permissions control panel. I open the control-panel, and indeed the Amazon app is listed. However you cannot change the permissions, the slider is grayed out.
I dont need amazon (or any programm which wants to know my location for no apparent reason), so I thought I remove the program completely from the device. But it seems that Blackberry has locked the program into the OS.

I will do a wipe of the passport and then put the program in some folder on the very last page of the screens as a workaround but better would be an option to remove the program. Anyone knows if there is a way to do this ?
