Is that what people use to freeze Apps nowadays? I'm curious, because the last time I used a rooted Android device was like 7 years ago.
If you have root than Titanium is still the best around for things like app backup and restore, and if you have Titanium you might as well freeze apps with it because it's very easy.
But what Titanium calls freeze is actually a native function of Android ("disabling" an app), it just takes more steps. Normally it's available in the app's system info screen but preinstalled apps will bitch about it and may ask you to uninstall updates before allowing you to disable them. Some preinstalled apps won't let you disable them at all and you have to resort to terminal commands. It's just easier to use Titanium.
I think there's other apps around that specialize in disabling stuff and may or may not require root. I don't know, I've always used Titanium and never looked back.
