Google will automatically block sideloading of certain apps, specifically those users try to download straight from the internet.
The move signals that Google is slowly tightening up its policies around the practice, not just in India but in other regions.
Google will analyze and block apps through the phone’s web browser, any messaging app ( Android or otherwise), and any file manager if the particular app install requests sensitive permissions.
