Just wondering why the launcher requests android.permission.REQUEST_DELETE_PACKAGES? The app description does not tell. Could you please clarify? Thanks in advance!

android.permission.REQUEST_DELETE_PACKAGES permission is required to uninstall an app. FL shows an option to Uninstall a non-system app on long click of an app.

I suspected that but wasn't sure. Of course makes sense for the app drawer part. Thanks for confirming! Added it to the "allow-list".

Btw: Trustlook is unhappy. Should someone ask: most likely a false positive (just 1 out of 64 🤷‍♂️)

I reanalysed. It's clean now 😉

Yeeeha! Thanks – and congrats (not necessarily in this order 🥳)!
