Anonymous, 31 Oct 2023Its about time. Google need to remove sideloading.Lol if you don't want some features that doesn't mean others are also like you! it's android (an open source and open community system) not IOS. If you really want a close system that you cannot do anything other than what your company decides to allow you to do then switch to IPhone!

HyperionBurn, 31 Oct 2023why are so many people hating on this feature? im curious lolBecause they’re kids that think they’re power user just because they sideload emulators and pirated games on their phones. They actually have no clue about tech, and the fact that this is optional.

Nice feature. Someone said it's not new, so Android has had blocking to protect against malicious USB-C cables?

Check device protection settings if you don't know.

You can turn it on and off so what's the problem? If you charge your phone on the subway or bus you should turn it on, if you want to sideload an app, you can turn it off. Seems like it will help too if you use Wifi away from home.

"They want to destroy sideloading to preserve Google's monopoly" The vast majority of Android users just want a cheaper phone, and will never sideload. I sideload, but I recognize that 98% of people don't. This feature also makes sense as people who don't sideload may be more tech illiterate, meaning they actually need this. Just don't enable it lol, or disable it if it comes on by default. It's a good feature.
