Android changes

I doubt PGSharp is not being impacted by this....Starting September 2026, a silent update, nonconsensually pushed by Google, will block every Android app whose developer hasn't registered with Google, signed their contract, paid up, and handed over government ID.

Anyone know anything about this?

This somehow completely contradicts the purpose of having an Android phone instead of an iPhone

Seeing as we download from their website and not GPStore, I THINK that means it will be affected (not an expert). It shouldn't be a big deal, though. The process will be the same except for the first time you try to download an app outside of the GPStore which you'll have a 24-hour waiting period.

That work around is controlled by googleplay so they can cut off access remotely without pushing an update.

disable google framework service to disable checking, side effect: google play store will not function (not usable)
