Google details new 24-hour process to sideload unverified Android apps (Ars Technica)

Ars Technica describes
the ritual
that will be required before a future Android device will
deign to install apps from somewhere other than the Play Store. It is not
for the impatient.

Here are the steps:

  • Enable developer options by tapping the software build number in About
    Phone seven times
  • In Settings > System, open Developer Options and scroll down to
    “Allow Unverified Packages.”
  • Flip the toggle and tap to confirm you are not being coerced
  • Enter device unlock code
  • Restart your device
  • Wait 24 hours
  • Return to the unverified packages menu at the end of the security delay
  • Scroll past additional warnings and select either “Allow temporarily”
    (seven days) or “Allow indefinitely.”
  • Check the box confirming you understand the risks.
  • You can now install unverified packages on the device by tapping the
    “Install anyway” option in the package manager.
