GravyScanner : a FOSS Android app that reveals installed apps involved in Gravy Analytics data breach
Android app that reveals installed apps which may be leaking your location data via Gravy Analytics - steffandroid/gravy-scanner
Blank white screen on the personal profile (woot).
Outlook only on the work profile (only has notification access and nothing else). I'm actually surprised Teams isn't on that list, but ok.
Bejeweled 3 has forsaken me.
Podcast Addict, bummer I use that daily. Any way to block the leak without ditching the app?
6 pages of apps... nice. π
Now, seriously. Android 14 on a Samsung phone, lets me select "location: only while using the app". I close apps when not using them, and limit notifications so they don't get auto-started at random. Unused app detection, puts them in "deep sleep" which doesn't allow them to run at all, and strips them of all permissions.
This scanner, would be more useful if it also checked which apps have the location permission enabled, and are frequently used.
Outlook is my only offender... Kinda out of luck there.
Yahoo Mail (don't judge me) and Viber are the only ones that I still need to use, but don't see why they'd need the location permission. If I deny location permission to those apps, will that stop the leaking?
My... Guess is that it's still another data point attaching your IP to you. I haven't really dug into how true that would be, but there is def fingerprinting stuff that could be shared without location permission. I.e. just a web request gives them your phones ip. Now that might be your cellphone wan ip, That might be your home ip etc... still identifying info.
Imo this isn't so much about tracking your literal location (though, that too) but also in tracking you across websites without permission.
Needs some more cooking. Boots into a white page with nothing on it for me.
That means you're clear and don't have any offending apps.
Man, I had no idea Tumblr was on the Gravy list. Great app!
Tumblr is wpa enabled. Use that.
Almost read it gay scanner
"Your phone is not gay enough... here are some themes and backgrounds to make it more fun!"
(probably not PC, but that could be a fun app)
