Re: Is there any way to disable Google Play Protect (GPP) from an EMM or to otherwise whitelist apps from scanning?
Could just be ignorance on my part, for which I apologise, but the frustration arose when I could see an option (blue slider button style) to turn off GPP from its settings and a pop up asking whether to turn off or cancel would come up, but even if I clicked on the turn off option it just wouldn't actually do it - not even any error message to say why. What's the point of showing it as a changeable setting when it can't change was the frustration. As others have said, no problem if you want to have protection for apps through the Google Play channel, but for various reasons it is often the case where Android is used to implement a dedicated device that you don't want the risk of application instability (or becoming vapour ware) due to some unsolicited intervention9.9KViews2likes0CommentsRe: Is there any way to disable Google Play Protect (GPP) from an EMM or to otherwise whitelist apps from scanning?
On the other hand force stop and disable google play seems to have resolved. Just tired of seeing the same trend symptoms that MS and others have gone through over the years of eroding our supposed freedoms under the guise of it is better for us ... 🙂20KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Is there any way to disable Google Play Protect (GPP) from an EMM or to otherwise whitelist apps from scanning?
Couldn't agree more. Got a bunch of Lenovo's, couldn't turn GPP off even though the option appears. Waste of time, all being returned, will turn to Chinese products instead20KViews0likes0Comments
