and this would have even applied to my fairphone!
would have, if I didn't get rid of google services the day I got it. -
I don’t have to recommend anything just because I’m asking why people are buying spyware tech.
Just like I may not know the proper way to safely jump out of an airplane, but I do know a parachute is involved.
A person asking why people do a thing that seems stupid isn’t obligated to solve the people.

I just realized the network error made me doubly post my comment, I've deleted the other copy

No worries. Happens to all of us.

an app on all Android
not my android
BTW did anyone reverse engineer it? Or doing rn (I'm HTH)?

I did a fair amount of research before the switch to find alternatives to Google services, some I've replaced, others I felt were too much of a hassle for my phone usage.
I've kept my original pixel stock, the hardest part about switching this one over was plugging it in and following the instructions.
I'm hoping to get rid of my stock OS pixel soon, it would appear my bank hasn't blocked it's app on Graphene, unlike Uber.
For the rest I'll either buy a cheap af shitbox to use purely for banking and Uber (if it comes to that).
If you've any other questions I'm happy to help find then answers with you, feel free to DM me.

Jesus thanks for posting this. Found it on my LG ThinQ.
Anyone have a fairphone? Thoughts about it?
-
Well then I hope they like seeing my butthole.

My older brother swipes through your phone's photos without asking, so I put some colonoscopy pictures in there. He hasn't tried to look at photos on my phone since.
Oh Google what have you done to yourself.

Even worse, i found this comment in the app store and it did the same on my device :
Installed automatically without my knowledge, no notification, only found it because of a friend's post, and even then, you only see it through a link, it doesn't come up in your app list or a search of the Google play store. I thought it felt like my battery was draining a little quicker too, which is apparently also something noticed in connection to having this app. Uninstalling.

I'm not seeing it on my S22, but I am seeing system intelligence. What is it?
-
Seems to be innocuous, but there's no harm in removing it. Next update, it'll be returned, so the better solution long-term will be (if you're rooted) is to use an application to freeze it, which effectively disables it and it should survive and update. If you delete the app, a new update will put it back.
-
How do you uninstall it?
-
Jesus Christ they're like bed bugs
Is it too much to ask that my phone only contain the shit that makes it work, and not anything else?
-
or just disable play store and use an alternative store like aurora.
Then it'll never get installed in the first place.
-
You can freeze using ADB/Shizuku as well. No root needed.
