Opening my weather app this morning I was greeted by this warning:
Google has announced that, starting in 2026/2027, all apps on certified Android devices will require the developer to submit personal identity details directly to Google. Since the developers of this app do not agree to this requirement, this app will no longer work on certified Android devices after that time.
It’s the first time I hear about this, seems to be about:
Cirrus app: Github
Was this a big thing I somehow missed? I hope more devs will follow suit.
Idk if I’d call it “very supportive”, Motorola voids your warranty to install custom ROMs.
Are there any companies that don’t?
Anyway I’ve never had to use the warranty plus my most current phone is a eBay refurbished device
Google and Fairphone don’t. I can’t imagine Shift does either being a German company.
