Users are encouraged to install the software they prefer on the phone.
If you accidentally uninstall the core applications on the phone, perhaps as a result of installing alternative or additional software, you can reinstall them from a terminal with the following command:
.. code:: bash
sudo apt install librem5-gnome-base
