  • But using Samsung Health means it will be locked down in their ecosystem, and also most likely harvested for whatever they want that data for; most likely more ads for their smart juicer or smart fridge or something.

    For sure!

    The app I am currently using is called Calory. Sadly it’s not FOSS. I run an older version and block internet access to it so I don’t get the nag screens to pay their subscription pricing.

    Because most of my software doesn’t have support for webp, including but not limited to my Mac, phone, and messaging apps. Until everything supports it, I have to keep converting it to use it, so I just don’t bother saving anything as webp. In fact, I have a firefox extension that lets me save webp as other image formats.

    It may be good to use for the web, but it’s not yet good for me.













  • I would imagine the risk depends on the app, your use case of the phone and the app, and if you’re a high-profile target.

    That said, Android phones have an Android ID, an Advertising ID, a sim ID, wifi ID, bluetooth ID, MAC address, IMEIs, and more.

    There is an Xposed module called Android Faker that claims to spoof these IDs. It requires root and something that can manage xposed modules, such as LSPosed. I only use it for a few super sketchy apps that I need and don’t trust.
