What's the most modern SMS app available? It can be only on Github too as I use Obtanium. I'm hoping for something with rounded corners and a more Apple-esc appearance.

Is there an app that shows if there are trackers in it?

The Exodus Privacy website does and it's feature is built into the Aurora store

I have this app, it just won't go past a certain letter on my phone, so only apps a to F show up.

But in theory, isn't there a way to remove the tracking scripts from the APK?

Try the website instead of the app then. Removing tracking scripts is above my knowledge level

Mine too. Lol. But is there an app / service that would scan APK's before you install?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago

Aurora Store does as long as the app has already been put on Exodus

Yes, I use App Manager. On APKs chose open as, app manager, scan. If the app is already installed you can also use the scanner option
