mediumCleartext (HTTP) traffic permitted1 occurrence

Interpretation & review guidance

The manifest permits cleartext (HTTP) traffic. Data sent over plain HTTP can be read or tampered with on the network; modern apps should require HTTPS.

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.
lowAmazon S3 bucket reference2 occurrences

Interpretation & review guidance

A reference to an Amazon S3 bucket. Using cloud storage is normal — the risk exists only if the bucket allows anonymous listing/read, which requires a separate authorized assessment.

Evidence
2 recorded occurrences in the analyzed APK. These are distinct stored findings, not a count of every source match.

Third parties present
No analytics/advertising SDKs detected.
  • Personal-data permissions/identifiers appear on-device, but no third-party analytics/advertising SDKs were detected that would receive them.

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.

Data Safety comparison not recorded.

No SDKs detected by this scan.
