This app is absolutely downright garbage and allows scumbags to mirror your phone and access all your accounts and steal all your accounts. This is what opens it up and gives them access. I do not recommend for anybody. I do not recommend download. I think it should be closed down in banned and gotten rid of. They stole my cash app. Chime my Bank of America. Three of my email accounts. Everything they have locked me out of and changed all step 2verif. info to get into all my accounts all
