Limits

We read the app's code and its official download without running it. Code that exists may never run for you, and behaviour decided by servers is invisible.
Web addresses and libraries show what the app can talk to or do, not that it does so every time you use it.
Only open-source apps with a public GitHub repository are analysed. The release we inspected may differ from builds in app stores.
This text was written from fixed templates because no AI writer was available. It uses exactly the same evidence.

Facts, not judgements: this page describes what the code and traffic show, not anyone's intent. Not financial advice. Case id o357UhAo.
