And one more app installed through Obtainium thanks ⚡

Btw here is the github link : https://github.com/Myzel394/locus

Any good app suggestions for Obtainium?

Yes ⚡

You should add the Robosats app to the list too 👀

Yooo 👀

Thanks, this is cool 🤙

If it is done for live location it should be applicable for any type of message, is this the case?

It's not really built for it. Looking at the code, it encrypts locations with a password that serves as an encryption key. This is fine if the underlying cryptography used is strong enough, especially if the location isn't a home address for example (because if it's just a random place you happen to be, odds of a good pass getting cracked are slim to none) but for end-to-end encrypted messaging much more complex mechanisms are used - check out the documentation for the Signal Protocol for an idea, most encrypted messengers use the Signal Protocol or something very very similar, that's the industry standard now.

Thx I will have a look

Says iOS? Don’t see it in App Store. TestFlight?

Oh it says on GitHub:

> iOS currently does not have a release. You will need to build and install the app yourself.

So either build in XCode or watch and wait for iOS.

This is kickass, I had no idea it existed
