Package intelligence
Observed signing, permission, version and size signals from contributing devices - descriptive of that sample, not a verdict. These come from the v2 Package Search sync, which not every device has contributed to yet, so for some packages this detail is partial or not present at all.

device profiles
- Signed by Google's own signing key (the same key Google uses across devices), so it is a Google-provided preinstall that updates independently of the system image, though 3 different Google signing keys appear across the fleet.
- Its largest observed manifest declares 34 permissions: 13 runtime (user-granted), 15 install-time and 6 vendor or uncatalogued.
- APK size ranges from 46.9 MB to 80.2 MB across the reporting device profiles, so the build differs substantially between them.
- Reported as an updated system app on 36 of 23 profiles - a newer build is installed over the one in the system image there.
Declared permissions (34)
