(I reposted this bc some applications were missing.) I had to install some apps because of school. Btw, can you say improvements that I can make? I can't install anything that isn't from playstore. Edit: Duolingo is now just a PWA

I don't use the Pay Store version, so I don't know what you're running into there. May not matter though, as I remembered after commenting that you have to have "Wireless Debugging" enabled, which requires the hidden-by-default "Developer Options" to be enabled - something I'll bet the Parental Controls disallows anyway.
Sorry.
Developer options ๐ (my parental control blocks developer options ๐)
Well, whenever you get the chance to use developer options, you can try Permission ManagerX instead. Does the same think Shizuku does but isn't outdated and can be downloaded from the Google Play, Fdroid, and the repository (and Amazon app store??? If that's still alive???).
Amazon app store actually was just killed for non-Amazon devices a couple months ago.
Ok, I heard about their app store being closed, but I thought it was for all devices, not non-amazon devices. Thanks ๐
