uranium enrichment is important! uranium is a social element and can get very bored in captivity, so keepers need to play with it regularly and make sure its enclosure is full of fun toys

what permissions does this Showcase app even have? Looking at Trail of Bits' full report ( https://40052983.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hubfs/40052983/iVerify-Showcase.apk-Vulnerability-Report-and-Pentest.pdf ) it seems like the scariest things there are WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS + some location stuff? nothing that even appears to require it be a system app afaict (so if you have physical access why not just install your own evil APK and grant those perms with adb...)
