I’m not an Android user, but props to you for taking the feedback onboard and doing this, Anuj. Lot of respect for you. In an era of eroded privacy, intrusive notifications, and enshittification you’ve done a genuinely positive and helpful thing to allow ordinary users to fight back.

And, yes, some people will criticise code quality but (a) if those people aren’t actively contributing to the product then you should ignore them, and (b) I suspect the complainers will largely be drowned out by the many who will support your decision.

You certainly aren’t the only highly experienced engineer vibe-coding their way through a problem - I’m leaning very heavily on Claude, and somewhat on ChatGPT, at the startup I’m working on at the moment.

Thank you, Anuj!
