[Tex/LaTex] Supress initials of authors in biblatex-apa intext

Question

I am referring to exactly the same issue as RSoul in his post a while ago:
Apacite: suppress initials intext?

However, I am looking for a solution with the biblatex-apa using biber-backend. It would be great if you could help me with this one!

Just for your convenience, I am citing RSoul with his question as in his post:

I am writing a doctoral thesis and I am using APAcite to set the
references in APA (American Psychological Association) format. Mostly
this has worked perfectly fine, but I would like to suppress the
author initials from the compiled version (in-text, not in the end
references section). This happens because there are multiple authors
with the same name e.g.,

Smith and Jones (1992) or Wells and Smith (1901) are typeset in-text
as:

I. Smith and Jones (1992) or Wells and D. Smith (1901). Although it
may be correct to have the initial in-text in APA format, in reality I
am using BPS (British Psychological Society) format, which uses an
adapted APA format (and you guessed it, they don't like the initial in
text). Thus in-text should look like the first example above (without
initial) but looks like the second (with).

To clarify: Any ideas on how to suppress the initial in-text in
apacite?

Thanks a lot for your help!

Have you tried with the uniquename=false option?

\usepackage[uniquename=false]{biblatex}
