fix: default analytics off for all installs, not just F-Droid - #74
Merged
Conversation
Second round of F-Droid review (MR 40630): the installer-identity check (PackageInfo.installerStore == 'org.fdroid.fdroid') only catches the official F-Droid client. Other F-Droid clients, sideloads, or installs where installer info can't be read all fell through with analyticsEnabled defaulting to true, so telemetry still fired on first launch for those cases. Drop the installer-detection entirely and just default analyticsEnabled to false for every install. Telemetry now requires an explicit opt-in via the Privacy toggle regardless of install source, which is simpler, removes the fragile detection, and still needs no build-recipe changes (same binary everywhere, reproducible builds unaffected).

Add analytics migration tests.
The previous release persisted 'true' only through the Privacy toggle. It did not persist its default-enabled state. The current logic correctly disables missing and 'false' values and restores explicit 'true' values. Add regression coverage for all three cases.

F-Droid re-review flagged the app as still "defaulting to the Railway endpoint" and persisting a UUID, even though analyticsEnabled already defaults to false and gates every automatic call (PR #74). Rather than keep relitigating a gated-but-present capability, remove it outright: - Delete ApiService (sendHeartbeat, trackEvent, reportUsage, backupData, userAppId, the Railway _baseUrl) entirely. - Delete settings_screen.dart, an orphaned duplicate of profile_screen.dart that was the only other caller of trackEvent/backupData and was never instantiated from any route. - Remove the analyticsEnabled setting and the Privacy toggle from SettingsProvider/profile_sections.dart — nothing left to toggle. - Remove the ApiService provider registration and the gated call block from main.dart's AppInitializer. No network code touching the Railway backend remains anywhere in the reachable app. http and uuid stay in pubspec.yaml — both used elsewhere (gemini_ai_service.dart, workout_provider.dart, etc.).

Brings in the telemetry/analytics removal (#73, #74, #75) that r2.1.0 picked up from main, which this branch had diverged from. Two conflicts, both where the removed telemetry sat next to new SQLite work: - main.dart: kept the health-data sync kicked off after init, dropped the adjacent api.sendHeartbeat()/trackEvent()/reportUsage() calls. - test_harness: kept the HealthDataSyncService provider, dropped the ApiService one. ApiService is gone with this merge, so the comment justifying the unconditional Hive.initFlutter() no longer held. The call is still required — the cutover flag lives in that Hive settings box and has to be readable before the backend is resolved — so the comment now says that instead. flutter analyze clean; 948 tests pass.

Summary
Follow-up to #73. F-Droid reviewer re-reviewed and re-blocked (MR 40630): the installer-identity check (
installerStore == 'org.fdroid.fdroid') only catches the official F-Droid client — other F-Droid clients, sideloaded installs, or installs where installer info can't be read all fell through withanalyticsEnableddefaulting totrue, so telemetry could still fire.Also flagged separately by another maintainer (
linsui): checking install source this way is fragile since multiple F-Droid client apps exist.PackageInfo-based F-Droid installer detection entirely.analyticsEnablednow defaults tofalsefor every install, everywhere. Telemetry requires an explicit opt-in via the Privacy toggle in Settings, independent of install source.Test plan
