Can I trust Bolt Finance & Crypto SuperApp?

unTRUSTED 66 Android Version 2026.04.0 (versionCode 4070) Scanned build downloaded: Last checked: com.bolt.mobile.app Scanned

This app did not meet two or more trust checks, has a critical issue in one, or has a red flag.

Avoid if
Concerned about screen activity capture in financial apps
What it means for you
Financial data and session tokens are protected against extraction through device backup systems, and contacts data stays on the device without being transmitted to external services. The build includes code to send usage, referral, and performance data to Firebase, Branch.io, UserExperior, and Datadog, among others.
Main concern
ScribeUp SDK includes code to capture full merchant login HTML, form data, and session tokens, and to upload them to 3rd-party servers
The developer's description
Bolt is a powerful all-in-one finance app that lets you send, receive, and spend instantly all in one place. Secure, fast banking, crypto trading, and P2P payments with real-time transactions and bank-grade security.

Trust checks

  • Secure by Design

    One criterion not met

    Security gaps detected

    Why this result

    This check looks for security issues at high severity or above in the code of this build, and at least one was recorded. Issues of this kind include a credential or token another app on the device can reach, sensitive data stored without protection, and network paths that expose information in transit.

    The app's embedded browser permits insecure content to load within secure financial login pages, and does not restrict which pages can interact with the rest of the app.

  • Data Minimization

    One criterion not met

    Tracking lacks clear disclosure

    Why this result

    This build contains analytics or attribution code written to send data to companies other than the developer. No consent step was found before that code runs, and the app's disclosures do not describe the collection in full. Tracking by itself is ordinary; what this check reports is the combination of collection, recipient and absent disclosure.

  • Manifest Mismatch

    An item rated high or above is open

    Disclosure incomplete or contradicted

    Why this result

    The check compares the app's privacy disclosures against what the code does, and at least one claim did not match in this build. Mismatches of this kind include a data category collected but not disclosed, a recipient the disclosure omits, and an identifier attached to data the disclosure describes as anonymous.

    This build contains code for this item; what that code does at run time was not observed.

  • User Control

    Strong

    No lock-in

    Why this result

    The check looks for a way to export the data an account has accumulated and a way to delete the account itself. In this build, either both were found, or the app has no account of its own and keeps its data on the device. For an app without an account, the developer has no server-side copy to export or delete, and deleting the app removes the data in its own storage.

    No proprietary data formats that would trap financial data, no confirmed artificial barriers to account deletion, and no obstacles to switching services were found in the app's code.

  • Truly Local

    One criterion not met

    Contains code to send personal data off the device

    Why this result

    This app presents itself as working offline or on the device alone, and this build contains code written to send personal data to servers. The check covers analytics, crash reporting, advertising code and any first-party endpoint the code addresses personal data to. Code of this kind is common; what this check reports is the distance between that code and how the app describes itself.

    This build contains code for this item; what that code does at run time was not observed.

Red flags

  • The app's privacy declarations do not match its code

    Why this result

    The privacy declarations shipped in this build, or the ones on the store listing, state less than the code does. Declarations of this kind are what a store, a regulator and a person comparing two apps rely on.

    This build contains code for this item; what that code does at run time was not observed.

Strengths

  • Biometric-gated AES-GCM encryption with hardware-backed Android Keystore protects some auth credentials
  • Android backup is fully disabled, so backup APIs have no configured path to include financial data and session tokens
  • Cleartext traffic blocked globally across all network connections
  • Contacts data stays on the device — no bulk export or transmission to analytics observed
  • Datadog session replay not activated, limiting screen recording exposure from that SDK
