Thanks to @exodus, I just uninstalled a bunch of apps that use Facebook tracking. Opentable, instacart, grubhub, and etsy, I can use via Firefox or Chromium. The few that I use too much to uninstall, I will write to ask to move away from Facebook.

I don't know if it is the perfect way, but I use Blokada. You do not need to root your device and it blocks all connections to trackers.

Many apps can also replaced with their websites and some websites even use PWA which transform website into app like design

By app like design you just mean removing the browser UI right?

I have never found the appeal of PWA. I prefer a lot to just have a shortcut to the website to open in the browser were I will still have the ability to have multiple tabs open.

Yes this is what I mean.

Many sites moved already to PWA. If yours doesn't, ask them for support.
PWA is the future
