Good news!
I have been successfully able to register App Manager and Captive Portal Controller in the Android developer verification console. From tomorrow, users from countries where App Manager had previously been restricted due to regulatory issues (e.g., Singapore, Thailand, Turkey) should be able to install App Manager without bypassing Google Play Protect. However, I didn't receive any updates from Google regarding how all these are going to play out with Google Play Integrity API. If you encounter any issues with you banking apps because of App Manager, please contact me with necessary documentation (Android version, affected app info, screenshots, etc.) so that I can discuss this with Google Play's support team. Note that due to the verification requirements, only the "official" version of App Manager has been registered. You can download the official version from the Telegram channel, GitHub releases, Matrix group, or IzzyOnDroid repository on F-Droid. There is another F-Droid version located in the F-Droid official repository which is signed by F-Droid and couldn't be registered at this moment.
