Survey shows most of you don’t like Android’s new sideloading restrictions

Wait 5 sec.

Google announced new rules for installing apps from sources outside the Play Store last week. Starting later this year, in order to sideload an app, you’ll have to read a handful of new warnings and, most controversially, wait a full 24 hours between confirming that you want the ability to sideload and actually gaining access to the option to sideload APKs from unverified developers.We’ve been asking you, the Android Authority readers, how you feel about the upcoming changes. Some of you appreciate what Google’s doing for user security, and some of you don’t care at all — but unsurprisingly, the majority of you think the changes go too far.
