To delete WhatsApp from a Huawei phone, follow these detailed steps:

1. Uninstalling WhatsApp:

   • Open the App Drawer by swiping up from the bottom of your home screen or tapping on the App Drawer icon.
   • Locate the WhatsApp app among your installed applications.
   • Tap and hold the WhatsApp app until a context menu appears at the top of the screen.
   • Drag the WhatsApp app to the "Uninstall" option that should appear on the screen.
   • Confirm the uninstallation by tapping "OK" when prompted. This will remove the WhatsApp application from your Huawei phone.

2. Deleting WhatsApp Data:

   • After uninstalling, you may want to delete any residual data associated with WhatsApp for a clean slate.
   • Go to "Settings" on your Huawei phone by tapping on the gear icon in the notification shade or from the App Drawer.
   • Navigate to "Apps" and then find "WhatsApp" in the list of apps (it might still be listed even after uninstallation).
   • Tap on "WhatsApp" and then select "Storage."
   • Here, you can clear data by tapping on "Clear Data." This will remove any cached information or data related to WhatsApp.

3. Removing WhatsApp from Internal Storage:

   • If you want to ensure that no remnants of the WhatsApp app remain in your internal storage, you can use a file manager.
   • Open the File Manager app on your Huawei phone (it might come pre-installed or you can download one from the Google Play Store).
   • Navigate to "Internal Storage" and then go to the "Android" folder.
   • Look for a folder named "data" and within it, find a subfolder with a name that starts with "com.whatsapp." This is where WhatsApp-related data might still reside.
   • Delete this folder by tapping on the three dots in the top-right corner of the screen and selecting "Delete."

4. Backup (Optional but Recommended):

   • Before deleting WhatsApp, it is advisable to backup your chats and media to avoid losing important information.
