Ah, I see, thanks for the clarifying response!

I didn’t know if I read this right, but are there cases where the app list would not be shared with other apps on the device, or does that require interference from Google?

“When an app targets Android 11 (API level 30) or higher and queries for information about the other apps that are installed on a device, the system filters this information by default. This filtering behavior means that your app can’t detect all the apps installed on a device, which helps minimize the potentially sensitive information that your app can access but doesn’t need to fulfill its use cases.”
