- Post descriptions must contain:
- All or part of the description of the app from the Google Play Store.
- Post descriptions can contain:
- The date when the sale ends, if known
- Your country of origin (This is not required, but can help because sometimes sales are limited to parts of the world.)
- Historical information about pricing if known
- Do not include any other information in the post! No media or other links. If you would like to provide more information or opinions, make a reply.

Recommendations
- To help others decide whether to buy or download these apps, make a reply and share what you know, including:
- the merits of the app
- compatibility issues with different Android devices
- similar apps that you prefer
- historical pricing data if known
- If you see a sale has expired, please reply with the word “Expired” so the poster knows to change the title.
- If the sale has expired but you think the app is worth paying full price, please say so. We like sales, but we also want developers to be fairly compensated for good work.

So I decided to reinstall Nova to test your theory. As you can see, I have telemetry turned off:
Yet, the launcher still attempts some sort of network request:
I haven't dove into the packets to see what it's trying to do but if I didn't have it blocked by Adguard's firewall I wouldn't even know.
Don't trust it.
I'll look into it, maybe its update pulls or something. Trust is a overstatement, i basically put all of the apps requests to void, meaning they won't go anywhere.
Updates should be handled by the Play Store.
In theory yes. I can't look it up right now however, so we need to wait.
Happy new year btw
Same to you
