    For the BT headsets audio quality, you should be able to change the audio mode as it might be selecting Headset (HSP/HFP) by default which is used when you need to use the microphone. Instead select High Fidelity A2DP mode which will stop the microphone working but give you the proper audio quality.




  • Kinda. It can help grip strength a lot, or at least holding weights in that way can. But its not a grip strength exercise. Deadlifts, barbell/dumbell shrugs, farmers carry, curls, etc… stuff like that can all help improve grip strength while not being the primary goal of the exercise.





  • No, youre right - just because its old doesnt mean its insecure. But honestly, it’s very short sighted to think there may not be potential security issues. I haven’t gone through the code, and I’m not going to, but the amount of problems that could crop up due to using an app that is not being maintained are potentially huge.

    Maybe its reaching out to a server to get a block list, and that server has now been exploited and is now distributing malware to your phone?

    Maybe the way it handles blocking calls has a huge flaw which can be exploited by another app to gain higher privileges than its own?

    Just looking at the issues list, a year ago someone even points out that through using a static analyzer they found 23 issues. Who knows the severity of them?

    This is all speculation. But to just wave off a geniune concern is ignorant.
