Google announced a policy update for apps on the Play Store, and one of the most interesting ones is: Developers will no longer be allowed to see local apps of the user in order to enhance the privacy of the user.
Previously, developers will be able to use the command QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES To ask permission to see the apps installed on your device, this update will actually happen sooner. But because of the COVID-19 situation Thus causing a delay
The exempt applications are: About Antivirus, file management and browser search
Google has set the following criteria for apps that will not be banned:
When the main usage is not related to the visibility of the app on the installer device.
When applying for permission is to use the information in sales
When able to change the way the app works to use a different method that is not relevant
