Right, that's what I meant when I said "third party app". Samsung can write an app to do this, but your average app installed from the play store likely cannot.
you can have third party apps as system apps. you can even write your own, but the API docs are somewhat harder to find. nowadays you install them with magisk modules (not all of them contains an app), so that it is easier to revert and also to hide from those looking for it with a bad intent
