(I reposted this bc some applications were missing.) I had to install some apps because of school. Btw, can you say improvements that I can make? I can’t install anything that isn’t from playstore. Edit: Duolingo is now just a PWA

Install Shizuku to give the apps of your choice elevated rights. I use Hail from F-Droid, but it looks like this is a similar app on Play that’s used via Shizuku to “freeze” apps that you can’t remove. It keeps them from running and hides them from your app drawer.
I tried to check the Shizuku app, but it says it’s for an older Android version. When I checked it a few days ago, it didn’t say that.
I don’t use the Pay Store version, so I don’t know what you’re running into there. May not matter though, as I remembered after commenting that you have to have “Wireless Debugging” enabled, which requires the hidden-by-default “Developer Options” to be enabled - something I’ll bet the Parental Controls disallows anyway.
Sorry.
Developer options 😂 (my parental control blocks developer options 😞)
Well, whenever you get the chance to use developer options, you can try Permission ManagerX instead. Does the same think Shizuku does but isn’t outdated and can be downloaded from the Google Play, Fdroid, and the repository (and Amazon app store??? If that’s still alive???).
Amazon app store actually was just killed for non-Amazon devices a couple months ago.
Ok, I heard about their app store being closed, but I thought it was for all devices, not non-amazon devices. Thanks 👍
