Uninstalling a Shopify app doesn't always remove what it added to your theme. Old app snippets and script tags can stay in the theme code and keep loading on every page.
Quick check: open the theme code editor, search for the app's name, and see what's still referenced in theme.liquid and the snippets folder. Then compare your mobile speed in Shopify's Online Store speed report before and after clearing the leftovers.
Always duplicate the theme first and test the copy. Removing the wrong line can break the cart.
