So how does this stop malicious apps from using the same workaround that Google proposes, as mentioned in the article:
"The documentation advises explicitly checking for installed camera apps by their package names — meaning developers would have to pick preferred apps up front — and sending users to those apps directly. Of course, there are other ways to get options without identifying all package names, like getting a list of all apps and then manually searching for intent filters, but this seems like an over-complication."
- stefs 6y agothe decision now lies with the developer, not with the user. therefore, a malicious camera app developer would have to convince the developers of all targeted apps to support their app instead of the default camera app, which pretty much doesn't work.
