Oh sorry its duckduckgo https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.duckduckgo.mobile.android/ Its mostly a search engine app and browser. But if you go into settings under "More from DuckDuckGo there is a "App Tracking Protection" option. While this is on it will block and list out any trackers and what they were trying to do.

Thunder but it was the version off the google play store. Darklightxi was going to check to make sure the version up there was the version without Sentry which was a debugging tool for error logging.

Looks like "Functional Software" from the screenshot is sentry so that makes sense then. Is the version up on the play store an older release than v0.2.1+12?

Also those permissions are fine and totally make sense.

I haven't either, so not sure if it does or not. However see my edit. The apk doesn't have any trackers on it as far as I can tell so far.

Oh you know what its in the google play store version. I switched over when it became available. Welp going back to the apk lol.

 

I get apps aren't free but I would have gladly paid for the app to not have to deal with this type of thing.

Edit: Ok reinstalled the github version v0.2.1+12 and not seeing any trackers. Thanks yamapikariya, very good suggestion with the difference being the github vs playstore.

Yea its pure insanity and greed. This is just one of many examples of why I have dual piholes on top of ad blocking extensions.

Examples: I turned on the duckduckgo protection, opened the official app and visited a couple posts.

LOL I always used a picture of Nicholas Cage. Troll face should have been obvious.
