When did this become a thing? I sideload apps all the time with no issues.

Afaik new feature in android 15

Edit: Nvm, just read the article, apparently a feature in latest OneUI. So unless you use Samsung you wouldn't know it. That aside, with android 15 you will get some sort of "feature" which discourages sideloading.

Well my Z Fold 3 stopped updating after Android 14, so I guess I need to make this phone last as long as humanly possible cause this is bullshit.

Lol same thought. I just got a new phone which came with Android 14 and I'm not updating this device.
