We don’t verify against GitHub releases — we verify against what users actually receive from the Play Store.
At WalletScrutiny.com, we extract the APK installed on a real device (or downloaded directly from the Play Store via an API), then build the app from source following the developer's instructions. We compare the two using tools like `diffoscope` or `apktool` to check for byte-for-byte reproducibility. If they match (excluding signing differences), the app is reproducible.
Using the GitHub APK assumes trust — we’re focused on trustlessness.
