There are countless apps available in the Play Store and the App Store, the two app stores owned by Apple and Google. While some of these apps are free, some need a fee.

Developers have discovered that Android 17 quietly blocks apps from checking whether Developer Options and USB Debugging are turned on, in what's being described as one of the release's hidden changes.
