Get TrackerControl from the f-droid store. You get to see what the app reaches out to, via an internal VPN to capture traffic. And it let’s you block things in a granular fashion
Don’t use the Google playstore version, as Google forced them to make it a view only tool and not a blocking tool.
It wasn’t before, its been around longer than the AI mess, maybe they are jumping on the bandwagon now. Alpha was out in 2019, and around 2021 they had to remove the VPN blocking to suit Google, so fdroid had the true version. That github repo only starts in 2024
that’s disappointing and would explain why I felt like it started letting stuff through more recently. I’ve been using Rethink lately and that seems to be pretty good so far

One installed it shows as TC in the app names
Looking at their repo I’d advise against it as the app is primarily AI coded.
Because you reviewed the AI contributions and made an impartial assessment of the code quality?

Yeah it definitely changed recently, even the interface, but originally came out in 2019, before vibe coding nonsense.
