Android@lemdro.id•Latest Android 16 QPR2 finally forces all app icons to follow the "Material You" colour scheme, but....English
71·2 days agoPersonally, I’m more effed by the borders and the squigly icon shapes of your launcher.
But, you can use a 3rd party icon pack like Material You or Material You dark/light icon pack. Or maybe use Icon Pack Studio to create a custom icon pack for your phone.

Android@lemdro.id•New Pixel update means your RCS messages might be visible to your bossEnglish
1·5 days agoI won’t accept an MDM device for personal use. I was just replying about signal being compromised with regular MDM in work profile on a non-rooted phone.
Everything would still be monitored. But, messages in signal should not be.

27·6 days agoWhat makes you think they would allow such a thing to exist? The french government was apparently after GrapheneOS for its extreme security and privacy.
The EU is after chat software with its chat control bill. Governments only care about power. Once they have it, it will be abused.

Android@lemdro.id•SmartTube’s official APK was compromised with malware — What you should do if you use itEnglish
61·6 days agoThe app is limited for TV which limits the reach. Plus, I do not download apps outside of fdroid for the most part.
It does not use proprietary typing data. So, it can be slightly worse.
But, you can always contribute some data here: https://swipe.futo.org/

251·6 days agoFortunately, its an app for TVs. Still, sometimes you have to be extra careful when downloading 3rd party apps. Especially, those which do not exist on fdroid.

1·6 days agoTrue, but Accessibility API cannot bypass secure display, and secure flag I had replied that in another comment so I did not mention that here.

12·6 days agoApps using Flag_Secure and Secure_display can block screencapture. While user apps stay below MDM apps in privilege. The MDN app themselves reside below the android system.
Do you have a source of MDM apps bypassing secure display and having the ability to capture the display?

16·6 days agoNot sure if you are intentionally being obtuse. But, this is not a hard problem. It has already been solved.
We have Signal, OMEMO in XMPP which already do that. You don’t need to do any encryption in your head…

74·6 days agoAn E2E Encrypted message should not be readable by anyone but the recipient and the sender.
If it can be read and shared without your explicit consent and approval with anyone even your employer. It’s no better than regular TLS encryption.

93·6 days agoThe default assumption everyone had was E2EE message data like RCS would be private.
Even apple does not share imessage data unless the Apple ID belongs to the employer.
Why would google do such stupidity is beyond me. But, yes on android assume everything is tracked 24/7. Trust your personal phone only.

141·6 days agoE2E encryption is useless if you don’t control the encryption method and storage.
Doing this when even apple does not handover such data is stupid on Google.



















It seems the function is not implemented. It has an active bounty of certain amount, and if someone does implement can claim it too.
Maybe, it will be implemented in 2026.
