IMD - It's My Device (supercharged fork of Geto)
Settings manager/ hide settings from apps
New in version 3
v3
* New: Auto unhide settings - your settings come back on their own when you close the app, lock the screen, or return to IMD.
* Hiding and unhiding are now two separate choices, so a device-wide hide can put back exactly what was there.
* Force-closed with settings still hidden? The next launch offers to restore them.
* You are now told when the Write Secure Settings permission is lost, whichever way you hid.
* Ten languages essentially complete.
* Settings manager rebuilt, plus many fixes.

IMD (It's My Device) is a powerful settings/ services manager and settings/ services hider (automated disable-enable settings) for restrictive apps (banking, payments...etc). It supports the following settings / services :
1. Developer settings
2. ADB / Debugging
3. Accessibility services
4. Display over other apps (needs active Shizuku service)
5. Shizuku service
6. and many more (per app configuration - hiding framework, hint: use Settings observer for help)
How this works
1. User opens app from IMD / IMD generated app shortcut
↓
2. IMD actually disables these settings
no app's security policy is broken
↓
3. Use your app normally
↓
4. Use Revert function
(accessible via: notification / quick toggle / Quick settings tile / homescreen shortcut / IMD settings manager)
↓
5. IMD enables the disabled settings
Settings manager
IMD's settings manager allows you to:
1. View the live status of your settings/ services
2. Quickly toggle them on-off
Automations
1. Auto unhide settings
2. Auto hide settings (IMD+ : needs background service)
3. IMD Intents (Tasker / MacroDroid integration, secured with auth keys)
About Permissions
* WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS (one time grant via adb shell or Shizuku) (MANDATORY, needed to change settings state)
* Shizuku service (optional) (needed to hide Display over other apps permissions - an appops permission)
* Post notifications (optional)
* Other permissions (optional: only needed if you use automations like IMD+)
Security Concerns
* No internet access or unnecessary continuous background services (so almost zero battery / system resource use).
* Does not tamper with any apps on the device.
* The parts of this app that change settings cannot be triggered by another app, so only you can change them.
* No ads, analytics, trackers or accounts of any kind. The app has no network permission at all - which is also why it cannot check for its own updates, and why Obtainium is how you find out there is one.
