    As far as I understood, the app only contains a token proving you are 18 or older. Nothing more…

    So what potential breach is he taking about?

    Or did I miss something?

      It’s apparently easy to bypass, but it also stores fingerprints and id images unencrypted.

      Teen can “hack” it to state it’s 18.
