The announcement also said that BharOS does not have any default apps (NDA). Accordingly, consumers are not compelled to utilise programmes that they may not be familiar with or trustworthy. Furthermore, this strategy gives consumers more control over the rights that apps have on their devices because they may decide to only give trusted apps access to certain functions or data, according to the company.
