And their app is just a wrapper for a webpage anyway.

[–] Glide@lemmy.ca 71 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Except now the app pushes ads to you through notifications.

[–] dual_sport_dork@lemmy.world 83 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

And it wants permissions to:

  • Camera
  • Microphone
  • Location
  • Media
  • Contacts
  • Call History
  • Read SMS Messages
  • Make and Receive Calls

...And will throw an absolute hissy fit and refuse to load without explanation if you deny any of them.

U forgot about search history. It's one of the most outrageous things that I cannot think of a legitimate use of it.

[–] Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 weeks ago

Call history or what do you mean?

[–] dance_ninja@lemmy.world 15 points 2 weeks ago

AND harvests more data from your phone!

[–] independantiste@sh.itjust.works 46 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

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

[–] KuroiKaze@lemmy.world 9 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

You know you can just delete your advertising ID on Android without an issue

[–] coldsideofyourpillow@lemmy.cafe 2 points 2 weeks ago

I shouldn't have to do that.

On my phone (Pixel 8 running Android 15):

Settings -> Privacy & Security -> Privacy controls -> Ads -> Delete advertising ID

[–] Paradachshund@lemmy.today 4 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

On mine it just has "get new advertising ID"

EDIT: apparently this means I didn't have one

[–] Machinist@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Nifty. Just deleted mine.

[–] serenissi@lemmy.world 13 points 2 weeks ago

It is a wrapper where content blockers can't be installed, unlike a browser.

[–] Lydia_K@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago

Came here to say this exact thing.

[–] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 42 points 2 weeks ago

Firefox mobile - check "Desktop Site"

[–] DmMacniel@feddit.org 15 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Oh is that the new Games on the Shelf Employee? I hope he has Gex.

[–] MidsizedSedan@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

[–] daggermoon@lemmy.world 12 points 2 weeks ago
