How to Fix Shizuku’s “You need to take an extra step” Issue
To fix this issue, adjust the developer options on your device according to the brand:
Xiaomi / POCO (MIUI): Enable USB debugging (Security options) in Developer Options. This is different from the regular USB debugging.
OPPO / OnePlus (ColorOS): Disable Permission monitoring in Developer Options.
