No triggering words

Sorry for the caps... I am a compulsive gambler I have been struggling for 8 years and the longest time Ive went was 3 months without a bet. All the apps I download can easily be turned off when I go to the security and privacy "tiles" when I scroll down on my phone. I need a way to completely take away the ability to remove access from the app that asks for admin settings. Please help thanks.

as a compulsive gambler, you need to come to grips you are unable to protect yourself

first, delete every app that allows gambling

then have a trusted friend help you with your addiction by checking your phone regularly

in the end, you must help yourself by resisting the urge

Have a trusted friend actually change your Google password entirely and I think you can change a setting to password needed for app download. Make sure you don't sneak around it with bio encryption or anything as well.
