[Proposal] Rearrange collections for the quicker new apps configuration #50
Description
Even having the “Enable all” checkbox, configuring new apps remains an annoying chore, as you always have to uncheck certain hooks to make the app at least launchable. But since these unwanted hooks are always the same for most of the scenarios, allocating them to the optional collections can make things much easier and really enhance the “Enable all” checkbox. Here's as few proposals:
Proposal: Allocate ‘Apps Spoof List’ and ‘Apps Spoof List EX’ to the new ‘Applist’ collection; move ‘Apps Spoof Timestamps’ to the 'Spoof' group.
Motivation: Control over app list access is still not a strong point of XPL-EX, while stands in the way of Hide My Applist.
Proposal: Make the entire Hardware group an optional collection.
Motivation: These options are outside the main purpose of XPL-EX (i.e. privacy) and could even hurt it by making device more divergent from the stock. But since ‘Spoof CPU’ and ‘Spoof CPU EX’ take effect by default without configuration, at least these two hooks need to be manually disabled every time. I think most users would benefit if Hardware group became an optional collection that can be turned on when interested.
Proposal: Allocate ‘Spoof Features’ to the new ‘Advanced’ collection.
Motivation: As you cautioned, this option can be quite troublesome without meaningful benefit for privacy same time.
Proposal: Allocate ‘Storage Isolate’ to the new ‘Advanced’ collection; move ‘Spoof Storage Size’ to the 'Spoof' group.
Motivation: Here we're talking about the ultimate breaker for most apps. Enough said.
In my practice the described tweaks have become a pattern, essential to just launch almost any application. I don't think I'm unique here.
