Your phone is about to stop being yours. In September 2026, Google will block every Android app whose developer hasn't registered with them.

as an android user, will i still get affected even if i use an older version of google play services?

    Where would you do this in the developer options? I checked but didn’t find anything related to this there.

      There’s now an option in developer options called “Apps from unverified developers”. Selecting it gives you the option to start the 24hr timer.

      I don’t know when it appeared there, but it’s on every pixel and Samsung phone I own despite the enforcement date still being months away for most markets.
