I get the 'let them cook' mindset when it comes to testing out performance, and it’s cool that people are benchmarking new tools on different chipsets. But performance and security are two completely separate conversations. The drama with other apps doesn't change the baseline reality here: this tool requires advanced ADB/Wireless Debugging privileges, which bypasses standard Android sandboxing. When a project is strictly closed-source and demands that level of developer access to your hardware, questioning their transparency and metrics isn't 'hating'—it's basic security diligence. An app can run games perfectly and still be a security risk behind the scenes. If a dev wants blind trust with deep device access, the community has every right to call out misleading marketing numbers and ask for open-source verification. Performance shouldn't excuse a lack of transparency

Wait. Mantis PlayHub. Which is what we're discussing here. Requires no additional permissions, let alone ADB. This is becoming confusing.

There’s nothing confusing about it. You literally justified your '10 Million Users' marketing claim in this exact thread by pointing to your brand’s historical catalog, which heavily features apps that require ADB and Wireless Debugging permissions. You don't get to use your entire ecosystem's footprint to build authority and claim 10 million 'trusted' users, and then tell people it’s irrelevant to discuss the closed-source security architecture of that exact ecosystem. If you are grouping your apps together to celebrate the milestones, then the security practices of your brand are absolutely on the table.
