What Is This App?

It's a React Native app built with Expo (SDK 54), running on the Hermes JavaScript engine. The backend is WordPress with a custom REST API. The app was built by an entity called "forty-five-press" according to the Expo config.

It's a rental. I'm wondering if it's not basically a front. The guy listed is a 22 year old (edit: age is maybe not the same guy) "head of engineering" for a company owned/run by Blue Rocket Incorporated, which seems to typically be a parent company to a lot of places.
