A good way to up your privacy on your phone. This app has been great for pushing me to find FLOSS alternatives.

Just adding on to this: If you want apps to be scanned before you install them, Aurora store has built in integration with exodus, so you can know before you download.

Thanks for sharing, OP!

Good callout. I'd recommend this as a first step when downloading apps through Aurora.
