🔐Here's our first look at Android's new Advanced Protection Mode page! As I've mentioned repeatedly, Android 16 is adding an Advanced Protection Mode feature that turns on several security features (like disabling sideloading and USB data connections when locked) as well as provides an API for third-party apps to turn on their own security measures. Although the Advanced Protection Mode feature + API are available in the Android 16 betas, there's no user-facing way to turn it on. However, @AssembleDebug managed to get the APM page to show up in Play Services. This is just a guess, but I think Google will announce APM at I/O and then roll it out with or soon after the Android 16 stable release. This doesn't need an OS update to QPR1 or later to work.
