Older devices may call the screen Application Manager. If you mean the person who manages a Verizon wireless account, that is a separate My Verizon role—not an app on the phone.
Where is Verizon App Manager on my phone?
- Open Settings. On most Android phones, tap Apps. The exact label and location can vary by device and software version.
- Search the installed-app list. Look for Verizon App Manager. If it is missing, check whether the Apps screen offers an option to show system apps.
- Check the app’s controls. Tap its name to see which actions your phone allows, such as disabling or force-stopping it.
On some devices the name may differ. A response in Verizon’s support community mentions DT Ignite as a possible label, but this is device-dependent community guidance, not a universal official name. Verizon Community: Verizon app manager

How do I find Application Manager on a Verizon phone?
Start at Settings > Apps; newer Android versions and many phones use that label. Some older devices instead call the app list Application Manager. For example, Verizon’s Ellipsis 10 HD guide gives the device-specific route Home screen > Apps > Settings > Application manager. That legacy tablet path is not a universal route for current phones.

What does Verizon App Manager do?
Verizon’s privacy policy says system software on some wireless devices may collect information about network and device conditions, including location, battery life, and apps on the device. It says the software may install apps or software during device activation, certain operating-system upgrades, and later with user consent—for example, when a user requests an app from an advertisement. It may also update apps it installed or apps the user otherwise permits. Some apps installed or updated this way may not appear as icons because of their limited utility. This disclosure does not mean every unexpected app installation on every phone is caused by Verizon App Manager. Verizon Full Privacy Policy & FAQ

How do I disable Verizon App Manager?
Open Settings > Apps > Verizon App Manager (or the corresponding entry on your device), then use the control your phone provides.

- Disable: Turns off the app where the phone allows it. Verizon cautions that disabling a preinstalled app may cause related apps to function improperly.
- Uninstall: Removes an app only when the device provides that option. Some apps included with Android cannot be uninstalled, though they may be disableable.
