And their app is just a wrapper for a webpage anyway.
It is a wrapper where content blockers can’t be installed, unlike a browser.

And it wants permissions to:
- Camera
- Microphone
- Location
- Media
- Contacts
- Call History
- Read SMS Messages
- Make and Receive Calls

U forgot about search history. It’s one of the most outrageous things that I cannot think of a legitimate use of it.
Call history or what do you mean?
AND harvests more data from your phone!
Doesn’t matter, the app has access to a unique device ID as well as an advertising id that the os provides free of charge without any user prompt! And that happens on both iOS and Android! How magnificent
You know you can just delete your advertising ID on Android without an issue
I shouldn’t have to do that.
Explain how!
On my phone (Pixel 8 running Android 15):
Settings -> Privacy & Security -> Privacy controls -> Ads -> Delete advertising ID
On mine it just has “get new advertising ID”
EDIT: apparently this means I didn’t have one
Nifty. Just deleted mine.
