Android Q. Google imposes new limits for its operating system, taking over from iOS what Apple has been doing for years with the products offered to customers.

Android Q. For the new version of the operating system, those from Google are thinking of imposing new limits on users in terms of use, which are quite similar to those that already exist in iOS. More precisely, the Google company will try to teach Android Q users to stop installing applications downloaded from the Internet by modifying a function that is now not as annoying as it will become starting with the new update.

Android Q. Until now, the first time users tried to install an application downloaded from the Internet, the operating system told them that it was not recommended to do the installation, and allowed them to modify the settings that prevent them from doing so. The modification of those settings was permanently saved for future installations, but Android Q will completely change this functionality, and will annoy many of the users who will install it in their own mobile phones.

Android Q. Starting with this update, every time users try to install apps downloaded from the Internet, they'll see an alert telling them that their phone can't do that. Changing the setting to allow installation will not be saved in Android Q, so every time you try to install an application downloaded from the Internet, you will have to change the setting that gives permission to do this on phones.

Android Q. Google says in its alert messages that this change was made to increase the security of the operating system, the limitation being somewhat similar to what exists in iOS, which does not allow the installation of unknown applications at all. In iOS this is possible with a developer profile, which costs only 100 dollars annually, so the limitations are not so strict even there, but Android Q is going to bring frustration for many people.

Android Q. This change exists both in the first and in the second beta version of the operating system, so users should get used to it, because it will not disappear soon.
