[Feature]: Shut up! I know what I'm doing mode issue #1633

Problem Statement

Hi dev,

The "Shut up, I know what I'm doing" mode works when opening some of the listed apps, but it doesn't restore the settings to their original state.

Some of my banking apps won't open if Developer Options or USB Debugging is enabled, or if any app has Accessibility permissions enabled. I have to turn all of these off to access my banking apps.

I found that if I whitelist my banking app through Essential's "Shut-up!" mode, it disables those settings and allows me to open the banking app using the new shortcut icon. However, if the banking app is minimized or closed for a short period, the blocking options are triggered again.

Also, after using the banking app, the Developer Options, USB Debugging, and Accessibility settings are not automatically re-enabled. I have to enable them manually.

Could you add a feature that automatically restores these settings to their previous state when the banking app is closed? Alternatively, could you add a timer that allows these settings to remain disabled for a specified period before automatically re-enabling them?

This would make the feature much more convenient, as I wouldn't have to manually re-enable these settings every time I use my banking apps.

Thanks!
