Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
After uninstalling / reinstalling microG all the existing app in the telephone does not reregister to GCN.
therefore no more notifications.
The only way I found to force the application to register is either deinstall/reinstall either clear data and reconfigure the app.
the process of reinstalling and configuring 300 applications is very long and painfull .
Describe the solution you'd like
Is there a way to force registration of existing application once microg is installed ?
there is a toggle button "Confirm new apps", I was wondering if we could maybe add a button " register existing apps" and then you choose the app that is installed on the telephone ?

Research direction
Start by tracing the existing app registration flow and the “Confirm new apps” toggle described in the issue. Determine how a “register existing apps” action would select installed applications and define done as allowing those applications to receive notifications without reinstalling or clearing their data.
