Version Venus · 2026-09-26
v3.0.0 : Venus. One Look, and Your Data Held Safe THE BIG ONE: YOUR ACCOUNTS CANNOT BE LOST This release closes four separate paths that could damage or erase the accounts you had already saved. If you ever saw "Could not open your accounts", or opened Lightning to find accounts missing, that is fixed, and your data is recoverable. - Fixed a launch race that could encrypt an empty list over your real accounts before they finished loading - A failed decrypt no longer overwrites the data it just failed to read - Setting or resetting a PIN no longer strands accounts under a key that no longer exists - Accounts now restore from your cloud copy instead of showing a dead end ONE LOOK,…

Method and limits

What this report can and cannot show

What a missing label means

Not yet tested. No analysis has been published for this app, so there is no method to describe for it yet. A missing label is not a clean bill of health: it means nothing has been read, not that nothing is wrong.

Limits of this report

  • A package scan is static. It identifies code and text in one Android build. It does not measure a live ad session, test a deletion request, or count the steps needed to cancel.
  • Reviews keep their sample. A review-only charge shows distinct reviewers, the share and the sample size, and is published only once it clears that label’s published threshold. Calibration labels are machine-drafted and not yet confirmed by a person.
  • Not assessed is a state. It is never a zero and never a pass.
  • A missing label is not a clean bill of health. It means the evidence did not support one, not that the app is problem-free.
Not yet human-reviewed. A human review gives an app hands-on, recorded measurements. None has been run for this app. Hands-on inspections are not yet open.
