NPlayer: Is it safe?

Is your iPad not able to play videos without this app? Better not to buy anything if it can.

It's available on the App Store so presumably Apple thinks It's OK.

If you are that concerned about your private viewing habits being observed or information being sent back to the developers, then quite simply, just don't download the app. Nobody here can guarantee anything, no matter how informed their options seem to be.

Thanks, so just the fact that NPlayer is on the iOS App Store means that it's relatively safe?

For the most, to me it means that it is safe to use. But Apple has had a couple of slip ups and has pulled apps for security reasons, but that is very, very, very rare.

No, I don't use NPlayer. I was speaking from general experience using the App Store on my iOS devices over the years. I trust that Apple is doing their due diligence when they test the apps. But there are lots of developers trying to get tons of apps through the process, so every now and then, a stinker is bound to get through.

I would check with the developer's of the app and see what their privacy policies are if you are that concerned about it.

There were a number of stockholders in Enron, how did that work out?

Only the developer could tell you how many users they have. If you are this concerned I would skip any apps.
