I would imagine the risk depends on the app, your use case of the phone and the app, and if you’re a high-profile target.

That said, Android phones have an Android ID, an Advertising ID, a sim ID, wifi ID, bluetooth ID, MAC address, IMEIs, and more.

There is an Xposed module called Android Faker that claims to spoof these IDs. It requires root and something that can manage xposed modules, such as LSPosed. I only use it for a few super sketchy apps that I need and don’t trust.

I think she means it will be unpopular, unknown, or not relevant. I am a gamer with a Steam Deck and I had no idea what the Index was or that it even existed until just now when you mentioned it here.

That is amazing!

And don’t forget about track skipping!

Fast Forward…wait…Stop. Play. Fast Forward a little more…wait. Stop. Play. Rewind a little. Stop. Play. “Ehh, close enough.”
