   As I see it, I think we have the following options for a one-tap toggle.   
      
   a. Chasing Samsung's hidden activities (which need extras we can't supply)   
   b. Use Automate + Shizuku to run the pm grant / pm revoke commands.   
   c. Use Automate + LADB to run the pm grant / pm revoke commands.   
   d. Jens' Automation app: can also run shell commands   
   e. Termux + Shizuku (script the pm grant/revoke commands in a .sh file)   
   f. Bixby Routines (but that will be Samsung specific & not general use)   
   g. AppOps + Shizuku (allows us to flip app permissions)   
   h. Permission Manager X + Shizuku (allows us to flip app permissions)   
      
   In order of worst to best, I think this is a defensible sorting.   
   a. Samsung's hidden activities require intent extras I don't have   
   f. Bixby Routines can do zero-tap automation but specific to Samsung   
   e. Termux + Shizuku (powerful, but perhaps too much overkill)   
   d. Jens' Automation can run shell commands but weak on shortcuts   
   c. Automate + LADB (redundant to Automate + Shizuku)   
   h. Permission Manager X + Shizuku (useful for manual control)   
   g. AppOps + Shizuku (a couple of taps unless we use profiles   
   b. Automate + Shizuku (directly runs pm grant / pm revoke commands)   
      
   Unless someone has a better idea, I'm might soon try to use Automate +   
   Shizuku since Automate can expose flows as homescreen shortcuts.
