### 1/5 — Collecte d'infos inacceptable !!!

*2016-09-05*

Je cite :
"L'application collecte les informations suivantes, de manière anonyme : nombre, date et fréquence des utilisations, activité au sein de l'application (pages affichées, durée de consultation, liens externes visités), système d'exploitation, adresse IP et emplacement géographique précis."

Les 2 derniers points sont pour moi INACCEPTABLES !!!

Déjà qu'on flique notre navigation sans nous demander notre avis, mais le caractère anonyme ne l'est pas du tout car ils ont votre position géographique !!!
Donc potentiellement l'adresse de votre domicile (si comme moi vous préparez votre voyage en lançant l'application) et donc votre nom !

A FUIR ET MÊME À BANNIR DU STORE !!!

### 5/5 — Superbe

Cette application est intéressante pour ceux qui veulent comprendre la géographie auvergnate. ( à quand un élargissement au Cantal et au Velay par exemple)
