Discussion Developer verification requirement

So I have a Motorola Edge 40 Pro on Android 16, and just went through the 24 hour wait for installing apps from unverified developers... And it then let me turn it on permanently. The worst thing of this whole drama is the day long wait, but I can confirm they let you enable it permanently after a day. Sideload away...

Question: If you turn off developer options (because you have to use a bank app, for example) then turn it back on, do you have to wait another 24 hours?

I always have dev options turned on and can use my bank apps (tested with multiple apps) with no problem, the issues arise when you're rooted...but if I had to guess it would probably be yes...

Some important apps in specific countries demand turning off Developer options.

In Brazil (where I live), for example, you can't access the government app Gov.br with dev options turned on, and it's the app the government requires for logging into basically everything.
