Proposed description

Companion Device Manager This handles connections to nearby (usually not remote) devices, desktop Operating Systems, etc... warning: removing this package may result in the inability to read the SD card from your computer's file manager (via USB).

Other info

On my device, it's possible to disable the pack via Settings app, so it shouldn't break "important functionality".

Reading files from internal-storage and SD-card works via USB.

BT headphones and speakers work as usual, unless there's some hidden functionality, such as "metadata sharing"
