Vulnerability - Invasive App

Bluetooth phone app requires full access to everything on your phone including camera, all files and locations must be enabled in order to run. Without all this, the application will not work. This is very invasive and presents a security hole. This application can send data, location and personally identifiable information (PII) from your phone to your home each time you use it. It can also access the camera without your permission. I didn't investigate to prove anything was exfiltrated, but an app doesn't need that kind of access to features unless the company wants to dig out your personal information. Remove all invasive things from the application and I will use the product.

Pros
  • Great Price
Cons
  • Expensive Insurance
