We use Firebase to gather anonymous data on how the app is used, including feature usage and crash reports. This helps us improve the app's performance. The collected data does not personally identify you.
We use Retrofit (com.squareup.retrofit2) for making network requests to APIs. It helps us fetch data from remote servers efficiently and convert API responses into Java objects. Retrofit supports both synchronous and asynchronous requests and is ideal for RESTful API interactions.

We use IAP (com.github.akshaaatt:Google-IAP) and BillingClient (com.android.billingclient:billing) to handle in-app purchases safely and securely.
We use System Splash Screen (androidx.core:core-splashscreen:1.0.0-beta01) to create a smooth and visually appealing splash screen when the app starts.
We use RootBeer (com.scottyab:rootbeer-lib:0.1.0) to detect if a device is rooted. This improves security by preventing unauthorized access to the app's features or data.
We use Shimmer (com.facebook.shimmer:shimmer) to create a shimmering effect as a placeholder while loading content, giving a polished feel to the app.
We use Gson (com.google.code.gson:gson) to convert data between Java objects and JSON. This is helpful when processing API responses or storing structured data.
We use Dexter (com.karumi:dexter) to simplify how the app requests and manages permissions. It provides a clean and user-friendly experience when accessing permissions.
