Yes, my health relies on it.

I sideload a glucose monitor app that's not available through Playstore (it's FOSS and health is a tricky area with liability).

It's a fantastic app and the ability to sideload it is a major reason I use Android over iOS.

I also sideload a patched app of the Dexcom glucose reader OEM's shitty app to allow the data to be read by the better (sideload) FOSS app.

Ok I'm not an ordinary person, I guess, but if I was I'd still use those apps and I know people who are ordinary and do so.
