Google is making it harder to root Android 7.0 Nougat
Rooting Android remains very popular with a certain crowd of users, but fact of the matter is for most folks it is an unnecessary hassle.I have gone through the pros and cons of hacking the operating system in previous articles, so I will not discuss them again here, but suffice to say that both the software and the hardware have matured so nicely that the vast majority of people can be perfectly happy with their new smartphone or tablet as it comes out of the box.Google has been somewhat permissive with regards to rooting, but, behind closed doors, it has been working hard to close the open avenues.
Android 7.0 Nougat will let you see from where your apps were installed
It appears when you view the information on an app you have installed, there is a new line of detail under a heading labeled "Store" which will show if you have installed an app from the Google Play Store or if you've sideloaded it (aka the Package Installer).Unfortunately, these seem to be the only two options that will be shown though.We tested out installing apps from the Amazon App Store, but even that simply showed as coming from the Package Installer.
Android 7.0 Nougat Will Protect Your Device By Not Booting Up When Malware Is Detected
