PSA: It seems the latest version of the Reolink Android app (v4.43.0.5.20240111) is capturing the phone’s clipboard when first opened, and again whenever the clipboard contents change and the app is brought into the foreground.

GrapheneOS reports, “Reolink pasted from your clipboard”. I don’t recall seeing this message on older versions of the software.

While network-accessible camera software has always posed a privacy risk, this is particularly concerning behaviour.

    Good thing I have frigate nvr setup and don’t need their app at all. This is super sad since these are my go to cameras. I will still buy them since I put them on a vlan and block all internet access. This is sad though 😕
