As title said, it is forbidden to publish a binary without the source file related to it. The latest binary on GoolePlayStore ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.simplemobiletools.smsmessenger ) is on 5 january 2024. Latest modification on this repo is Nov 10, 2023. I asked by email the company about the mandatory source file, I did'nt have any reponse.

In the Play Store comments, someone notice that the private data usage seems to have changed (and, at least, there is, now, a use of the ad identifier)
