Doubao Phone Assistant to Gradually Open Third-Party App Screen Automation Access

This matters less as a product update than as a governance signal: an assistant moving from a comment period into a phased permission rollout suggests screen-level automation is being treated as a regulated capability rather than a default feature. The affected parties are third-party developers, who gain operational reach but inherit the compliance and user-trust burden that comes with it. Whether the phased approach becomes the template for how other assistants open similar access is the open question.
