Key Findings From the Review
| Area | Observed Behavior |
|---|---|
| Permissions | The build currently declares Photos access and tracking permission in its Info.plist. The codebase also includes contact and add-only photo flows for optional features. |
| Identifiers | The app reads Adjust ADID, IDFA when available, and IDFV for attribution and subscription mapping workflows. |
| Local Storage | The app stores preferences, caches, and deduplication state in UserDefaults or the Caches directory, and stores Private Space files in Application Support. |
| Third-Party SDKs | Adjust, Meta, Firebase Core, Crashlytics, Remote Config, and Messaging are present in dependencies. Firebase is initialized at launch in the reviewed build. |
| Payments | Weekly and yearly StoreKit product IDs are configured. Transaction metadata is also mapped to device identifiers through the app’s own server-side flow. |
