Quick curious question.

Yesterday, my Android phone showed that Boost was installed by auto-scrolling to my 3rd home screen where there was space, but I didn't ask to install it. What could've caused this to happen?

Pixel 6 Pro, Android 13

I use base Sync for Lemmy

Did you sign up for it. I "preordered" it off the app store so the moment it was available it installed itself.

It's possible I did so months ago, but I can't be for sure 🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️

That's the only thing that would make sense. Apps don't install themselves without any request.

And if they do, it's high time for a factory wipe

Pretty sure it only asks if you install via 3rd party stores like Fdroid, not the play store.

I can see it in the Play Store
