Oh! My bad. My app doesn't show a preview.

Surprisingly, Jerboa seems to be the only one which showed the preview.

It's just Lenovo with the Motorola name slapped on it, unfortunately. Google stripped all the useful bits and sold it off about a decade ago.

It's 200%. They put two rootkits on every phone now.
