+### Clarifications
+
+Contrary to a vague mention on a social media post from someone affiliated with Google
+that there may be some "advanced flow" to bypass verification,
+Google's [description of the program](https://developer.android.com/developer-verification) continues to state plainly that:
+
+> Starting in September 2026, Android will require all apps to be registered by verified developers in order to be installed on certified Android devices
+
+Until such time that they have shown evidence that it will be possible to bypass the verification process without undue friction,
+we must believe what is stated on their official page: that all apps from non-registered developers will be blocked
+once their lock-down goes into effect.
