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.
- 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 29 permissions: 8 runtime (user-granted), 16 install-time and 5 vendor or uncatalogued.
- APK size ranges from 23.0 MB to 35.9 MB across the reporting device profiles, so the build differs substantially between them.
- Reported as an updated system app on 32 of 22 profiles - a newer build is installed over the one in the system image there.
Declared permissions (29)
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 |
|---|---|
ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION |
This app can get your approximate location from location services while the app is in use. Location services for your device must be turned on for the app to get location. |
ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION |
This app can get your precise location from location services while the app is in use. Location services for your device must be turned on for the app to get location. This may increase battery usage. |
ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE |
Allows the app to view information about network connections such as which networks exist and are connected. |
ACCESS_WIFI_STATE |
Allows the app to view information about Wi-Fi networking, such as whether Wi-Fi is enabled and name of connected Wi-Fi devices. |
BLUETOOTH_CONNECT |
Allows the app to connect to paired Bluetooth devices |
BLUETOOTH_SCAN |
Allows the app to discover and pair nearby Bluetooth devices |
CHANGE_WIFI_STATE |

FOREGROUND_SERVICE |
Allows the app to make use of foreground services. |
FOREGROUND_SERVICE_CONNECTED_DEVICE |

FOREGROUND_SERVICE_DATA_SYNC |
Allows the app to make use of foreground services with the type "dataSync" |
GET_PACKAGE_SIZE |
Allows the app to retrieve its code, data, and cache sizes |
INTERNET |
Allows the app to create network sockets and use custom network protocols. The browser and other applications provide means to send data to the internet, so this permission is not required to send data to the internet. |

POST_NOTIFICATIONS |
Allows the app to show notifications |
QUERY_ALL_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_SYNC_SETTINGS |
Allows the app to read the sync settings for an account. For example, this can determine whether the People app is synced with an account. |
RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED |
Allows the app to have itself started as soon as the system has finished booting. This can make it take longer to start the phone and allow the app to slow down the overall phone by always running. |
RECORD_AUDIO |
This app can record audio using the microphone while the app is in use. |
USE_BIOMETRIC |
Allows the app to use biometric hardware for authentication |
USE_FINGERPRINT |
Allows the app to use fingerprint hardware for authentication |
VIBRATE |
Allows the app to control the vibrator. |
WAKE_LOCK |
Allows the app to prevent the phone from going to sleep. |

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.
