I am visiting my mom, she kept complaining about how her phone wallpaper has started showing random things she doesn't want. I realised it's #glance which keeps turning on automatically even after trying multiple times to turn it off. It's like a malware!

Maybe we need to do the same in HSR, but with more steps to keep it disruption free. https://t.co/qGGpWZSaC5
