Emphasis mine.
I think the point is the developers might have just migrated the code without adjustments since that is how it was implemented before. Similar to how PC game ports sometimes run like shit since they are a close 1-1 of the original which is not always the most optimized or ideal, but the quickest to output.
Been a few days since using electron, but AFAIK electron can't be used as a wrapper for android apps, or can it? Or is their android app a web app wrapped into a "native" android app too?
Also, since this seems to be an issue since 2018, 6 years should be plenty to rewrite using a native secure storage...
