Internet, account, and data collection.
The app claims “Data Not Collected”, yet it won't open without an internet connection and requires an account before use.
Those claims are incompatible. An app that talks to a device locally over Bluetooth has no technical reason to need the internet, and creating an account means handing over personal information.
I would have loved to buy the FNIRSI DMC-600 for my car, but I won't always have an internet connection there. Data collection is distasteful to me in any case, and misrepresenting it makes it worse.
