    You think Android lets apps override their app disabling feature? You should report that to Google, they’d be shocked to hear it.

      Yes. It’s not the first time it’s been done either. Then there’s the loopholes as well, like Meta was doing recently.

          Sure, you tell yourself that buddy. Israel is happy for you to believe it.

            Go tell Google, they’ll pay you millions in big bounties for how Israel is doing this. Unless of course you have zero evidence that app developers can do this in Android……

            Yeh thought so.

              You don’t have evidence that Israeli app developers can’t do this either.

              It’s almost as of we’re lacking the money, skills, and manpower of a nation or something.

                I dont have to prove the negative, its on you to prove that they can.

                Even if it was up to me though, the OS prevents apps that have been disabled from running. AOSP’s documentation says this.

                Again - show Google it happening and you’ll be an instant millionaire. Why haven’t you done it already? Just DM me the evidence and I’ll do it since you don’t want to.
