Overview

Analysis recorded

2 finding categories to review

Weather (com.comm.weather2) scored grade A, 99 out of 100, in a static scan of version 1.0.4 on 2026-10-09. It has no high or critical findings, and 2 lower-severity finding categories across 2 occurrences. 6 tracking SDKs are present in the package, which describes what ships, not what runs or what it sends. This is static analysis of a single build: it does not observe the app running and does not establish that any data is exposed.

Start with these findings

lowGoogle API key (client-shipped; restriction unverified)1 occurrence

Interpretation & review guidance

Android apps are designed to ship Google API keys in the client; Google restricts them by app signing certificate + enabled API. This is only a problem if the key is left unrestricted — presence alone is expected, not an exposure.

Evidence
1 recorded occurrence in the analyzed APK. These are distinct stored findings, not a count of every source match.
Verification
Static detection; current reachability is not established.
infoApplication data is backup-enabled1 occurrence

Interpretation & review guidance

The app allows Android backups (android:allowBackup="true"). App data can then be extracted via adb backup on many devices — a concern if the app stores tokens or personal/health/payment data locally. Common and low-severity, but worth disabling for sensitive apps.

  • Approximate location, Precise location requested while 1 ad/attribution SDK(s) are present (Google AdMob) — location commonly feeds ad targeting.
  • Persistent-identifier APIs referenced in code (Advertising ID (AAID), Android ID, Device ID / IMEI) with 4 analytics/ad SDK(s) present — the mechanism used for cross-app profiling.

This maps what the app can access (permissions it requests, identifier APIs its code references) to the third parties bundled in it. It reflects capability and SDK presence — not proof that a specific value was transmitted.
