Dependency on Google Maps #66

Open thgoebel opened 2 years ago

thgoebel commented 2 years ago

With the "App Privacy Report" introduced in iOS 15.2 I noticed that EteSync for iOS has outgoing connections to clients3.google.com.

Grepping for "google" in the repo I noticed that there is a dependency on Google Maps: https://github.com/etesync/ios/blob/master/ios/Podfile#L45

1) Is Google Maps actually needed, or simply a leftover from some default Expo project? 2) Is that dependency what is (automatically) contacting clients3.google.com, or is there any other culprit? Or any other reason/explanation?

There shouldn't be, I thought we managed to strip all references to google maps. It's not needed, if it's there, it's a remnant from Expo.
