com.google.android.overlay.gmsconfig.searchselector Copy

A GMS config package whose "searchselector" suffix most likely refers to the search engine selector, the choice screen that lets a user pick their default search engine and which this database records as com.google.android.apps.setupwizard.searchselector. That mapping is an inference from the naming rather than a documented fact. Its name follows Android's Runtime Resource Overlay (RRO) convention, so it carries a build's configuration for some component rather than being an app anyone opens. Version note: in this site's sample this overlay is observed only from API 33 upwards, later than the rest of the family, which suggests a target that arrived after the others; that is an observation about this database's devices, not a published introduction version. It is seen signed by device makers rather than by Google, with the version uniformly reported as 1.0. As with the other GMS config overlays, Google does not publicly document them, so the specific values a build sets here are not published. For Android Enterprise, EMM and kiosk use it has no enrolment or policy role. The default search engine on a managed device is set through app configuration and policy rather than by removing this overlay, so disabling it offers no benefit and may affect how the choice screen is presented on some builds. Treat it as caution.

• Change the value of an app's resources at runtime (RROs) - Android Open Source Project →
• Package provenance for com.google.android.overlay.gmsconfig.searchselector - Android System App Database →

• Re-signed by each device maker with its own platform key - 12 different certificates appear across 9 device makers in our sample. That is the signature of a stock AOSP/system package every OEM builds and signs itself, not a single maker's or a third party's preinstall.
• Never reported as user-facing, so it runs as a background or system component rather than an app the user opens.
