You didn’t install it. You can’t open it. But it’s in your phone — right there in /system/priv-app/, with a name that looks more like malware than anything that should be part of a trusted Android build: com.android.cts.priv.ctsshim. It doesn’t …
You open Find My expecting to see a location — but all you get is a blank. Just a contact name floating over “No Location Found.” No timestamp. No address. No mini map. Just silence. You switch tabs, try again. …
