Android 16 could finally let you set your phone's region independently of the system language. Here's why that matters.

    Don’t care about features, just care about how to protect myself against their data stealing.

      You agree to it when you use there products.

      The only way is to not use stock Android

    Is there a global setting to quit fucking pestering me with pop-ups for things I already said I didn’t want during device setup?

      Install lineage OS and do not use any kind of Google Apps package.

    Oh great, more tedious settings to fill in. I hope they keep some overarching regional defaults.

    Any fixes to allow private spaces to use biometrics? Or to make shortcuts of the apps?
