I've just installed the app from the f-droid store but I can't enable the accessibility. It says for my security (?), i cannot enable it, why???
I use a custom gsi image called trebledroid (android 13), no gapps, version is 1.2.0 and i use phh SuperSU.
Thanks

I googled it a little bit and found this: https://blog.esper.io/android-13-sideloading-restriction-harder-malware-abuse-accessibility-apis/

And you can manually turn on the "Allow restricted settings" option too: https://support.google.com/android/answer/12623953

Does manually enable "Allow restricted settings" option addressed your issue?

By the way, since this might happens on all apps that requires accessibility service that you downloaded from F-droid, I also reported this to upstream. See: https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroidclient/-/issues/2515 edit: marked as duplicated of https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroidclient/-/issues/1836

Yes, this did the trick. Everytime I forget to check app settings.
Thanks ;)
