You can sandbox play store apps right?

[–] ITGuyLevi@programming.dev 1 points 1 day ago

Even the play store is sandboxed. Those stupid games covered in ads, no where near as bad when the app never has a network connection or access to any files outside its directory.

Everything is sandboxed but I don't have all the details. You don't actively turn any sandbox on or off, it's always there IIRC.
