Android 16 could allow developers to stuff their app preferences in system settings, a la Apple

As it stands right now, the Settings app on your Android device is primarily responsible for handling all device-related settings, while app-related settings and preferences are normally found within the apps themselves. This, however, could change with Android 16, with apps potentially gaining access to a new API that would let developers integrate their own app settings directly into the system's settings UI.
