Lock screen ads are a popular way for mid- and low-budget smartphone makers to subsidize costs, but Americans have largely been able to avoid them until now. Get ready for that to change.
Lol, I underestimated how many “Moto G” phones there are. I have the “Moto G 5g” at the moment, but had the “Moto G power” historically. But there are like 5 phones a year with “Moto G54” or similar branding.
I found what looks like active wallpapers on my phone, but I didn’t see any ads. For me it was hidden away in the settings and I only recall seeing it when first setting up my phone since my launcher handles the wallpaper now.
I do remember a bunch of apps like TikTok and some random Solitaire game being installed “for my convenience” when the phone was first setup, but I could remove them completely.
I wonder if very specific versions install different crap.
It’s a bummer if so because it’s what I recommend to friends if they ask.
