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 2 different Google signing keys appear across the fleet.
- Its largest observed manifest declares 11 permissions: 7 runtime (user-granted), 3 install-time and 1 vendor or uncatalogued.
- Never reported as user-facing, so it runs as a background or system component rather than an app the user opens.
Declared permissions (11)
Largest permission set observed for this package. Text is Android's own published description where one exists; platform permissions Android does not document show their granted protection level (in grey) instead; vendor or unknown constants show the name only.
| Permission | Description |
|---|---|
CALL_PHONE |
Allows the app to call phone numbers without your intervention. This may result in unexpected charges or calls. Note that this doesn't allow the app to call emergency numbers. Malicious apps may cost you money by making calls without your confirmation, or dial carrier codes which cause incoming calls to be automatically forwarded to another number. |
NFC |
Allows the app to communicate with Near Field Communication (NFC) tags, cards, and readers. |
QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES |
Allows an app to see all installed packages. |
READ_CONTACTS |
Allows the app to read data about your contacts stored on your phone. Apps will also have access to the accounts on your phone that have created contacts. This may include accounts created by apps you have installed. This permission allows apps to save your contact data, and malicious apps may share contact data without your knowledge. |
READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE |
Allows the app to read the contents of your shared storage. |
READ_MEDIA_AUDIO |
Allows the app to read audio files from your shared storage. |
READ_MEDIA_IMAGES |
Allows the app to read image files from your shared storage. |
READ_MEDIA_VIDEO |
Allows the app to read video files from your shared storage. |
READ_MEDIA_VISUAL_USER_SELECTED |
Allows the app to read image and video files that you select from your shared storage. |
WAKE_LOCK |
Allows the app to prevent the phone from going to sleep. |

Manage on devices
ADB commands for this package (the inverse of each is included so you can undo). Run from an authorised shell or wire the equivalent into your DPC. Verify on a test device first - this database doesn’t yet classify which packages are safe to change. --user 0 targets the current user; drop it (and use a privileged shell) to act device-wide.
Disable for the current user
adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.google.android.tag
Remove for the current user - a per-user uninstall; the APK stays on
/system, so Restore re-adds it (-k keeps app data)adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.tag
Re-enable
adb shell pm enable com.google.android.tag
Restore (re-install for the current user)
adb shell pm install-existing com.google.android.tag
