If you are being super paranoid... Unless the open source app is transparently built and app store deployed from a public build server, it's very easy for the owner to inject a back-door into it. There's no mechanism built into the app stores to validate an app against its source code. So the owner could checkout master, add a back-door, build and publish to the app stores, and you'd update, never knowing you're exposed. Nothing is 100% safe. It's just dependent on how much trust you assign. |
