How to remove Unity web apps?

Question

I recently installed Ubuntu 12.10 and all has been great, except for the web apps feature.

I've tried adding a few web apps, but it's very buggy and not a very good experience. I'm also tired of being asked to add a website as an web app. How can I remove web apps from Ubuntu entirely? I use both Chromium and Firefox.

Answer 1

You can remove the following packages:

unity-webapps-common
unity-webapps-service 
xul-ext-unity
unity-chromium-extension

Run from a terminal (not sudo)

gsettings set com.canonical.unity.webapps allowed-domains []

You're done.
