At ICEBlock, user privacy and security are paramount. Our application is designed to provide as much anonymity as possible without storing any user data or creating accounts. While we understand the desire for an Android version of ICEBlock, achieving this level of anonymity on Android is not feasible due to the inherent requirements of push notification services.
☝🏽
We are not suggesting that purchasing a new device is easy or affordable for everyone, but if you own an Android device and still want to use ICEBlock for maximum privacy, we recommend considering an older iPhone model like the XR. This way, you can enjoy the full benefits of ICEBlock without the expense of a new Apple device.
This page is full of some pretty bold lies, just to correct the record
Their claims about push notifications on Android compared to iOS are completely false. Both Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) and the Apple Push Notification service (APNs) function in a similar way with similar privacy. However, Android does not force using FCM and apps can use other push systems.
Not really, not when they make the claims they do.
Ignorance would be admitting you dont know enough about android to develope the app for it.
Making the claim it wouldnt be safe to use Android at all is just a flat out lie on their part. Id be very cautious about trusting an app developed by such people.
There won’t be.

Could be as simple as ignorance. An iOS developer unfamiliar with Android as well as a dev unfamiliar with privacy and security.
