Comment on How is everyone dealing with Android 17's "Nearby Devices" change?
pHr34kY@lemmy.world 4 days agoNative apps all have a backwards-compatible setting so it’s allowed by default. That will surely get dropped when Google bumps the minimum Android target API so newly published apps need to explicitly configure it.
I actually went through my apps list and disabled nearby devices for all the apps that don’t need it. It’s a good security measure. I just don’t like how it was rolled out.
