For example, Google’s devices, including the Google Pixel 7 Pro, run the Android Operating System which 

includes an interface which allow users to specify multiple aspects of policies based on user input in various 

settings (e.g., enabling/disabling Data Saver, Battery Saver, Extreme Battery Saver, etc., as well as enabling/disabling policies for specific applications) for controlling service usage activities. See, e.g.,
