Investigate Application data is backup-enabled

Build 5.17.0 · Scan 2026-10-13T06:53:58.511Z

1 distinct recorded findings; 1 have inspectable metadata. Locations are representative, not an inventory of every source match.

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.

Static evidence does not establish runtime impact. Source excerpts and line numbers were not recorded.
