Description

Hello, I'm using version 1.09e-r7 downloaded from the Google Play Store. I noticed that Android claims it has been using networking even if I didn't configured any network feature (see screenshot). Since that I switched to the offline version, but I would like to know if there is any rational explication to this. The app is certainly trustworthy, but I'm worried that my phone might be infected with some kind of malware.
