Overview

Limited assessment

6 finding categories to review

United Airlines (com.united.mobile.android) was scanned at version 4.2.98 on 2026-10-09 but is not graded, because the analysis did not complete enough of its checks for a score to mean anything. The checks that did run recorded 6 finding categories across 13 occurrences; because the analysis did not complete, the absence of anything more severe is not a result. 10 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

lowAmazon S3 bucket reference6 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
6 recorded occurrences in the analyzed APK. These are distinct stored findings, not a count of every source match.
Verification
Static detection; current reachability is not established.
lowBackground location access with advertising SDKs present1 occurrence

Interpretation & review guidance

The app can access location in the background (even when closed) and also ships advertising/attribution SDKs. Background location is a heightened-scrutiny area for Google Play and privacy regulators; confirm it is essential and disclosed, and that location isn't shared with ad networks.

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.
lowData Safety label omits Calendar1 occurrence

Interpretation & review guidance

The app's Google Play Data Safety label omits a data category it can actually access — a permission it requests, or an advertising/device identifier it references. Under-declaring collection is a Play policy issue and a COPPA/privacy concern. This is a static signal: a requested permission is capability, not proof of collection — confirm against runtime behavior.

Evidence

lowFirebase Realtime Database reference1 occurrence

Interpretation & review guidance

A Firebase Realtime Database URL. Nearly every app that uses Firebase ships one. It's only an exposure if the database rules are world-readable — that's what live verification checks.

lowFirebase Storage bucket reference1 occurrence

Interpretation & review guidance

A Firebase Cloud Storage bucket reference (the default <project>.appspot.com). Storing user files here is normal — it's only an exposure if the Storage security rules allow public read/list, which live verification tests.

lowGoogle API key (client-shipped; restriction unverified)3 occurrences

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.

  • Precise location, Approximate location, Background location requested while 3 ad/attribution SDK(s) are present (Google AdMob, InMobi, Kochava) — location commonly feeds ad targeting.
  • Persistent-identifier APIs referenced in code (Advertising ID (AAID), Android ID, Device ID / IMEI +2 more) with 7 analytics/ad SDK(s) present — the mechanism used for cross-app profiling.
  • Calendar, Camera, Phone, Photos & files data requested with third-party analytics/ad SDKs present.

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 is not conclusive because analysis coverage is incomplete or unknown.
