This page aggregates measured, corroborated evidence: donors' iPhones recorded apps contacting this domain, every claim below was reported by separate accepted donations and published under a human verdict (later rows for an approved app inherit its verdict). A contact is a measurement, not an accusation — it does not show what data was sent.

classified as cdn · 2
What our research panel found AI-drafted · human-reviewed
We ask several independent AI models the same question and publish their answers separately — cross-vendor agreement is evidence against fabrication, and disagreement is worth seeing. 3 of 3 models answered, overall confidence medium — classification split: anthropic=cdn, openai=unknown, gemini=cdn. A human reviewed this domain's claims before anything here published.
Anthropic Claude — cdn
api.mapbox.com is the API endpoint for Mapbox, Inc.'s mapping/geospatial services (map styles, tiles, geocoding); none of the offered categories fit a functional map provider exactly, so 'cdn' is the closest fit rather than tracker/analytics/advertising. A weather app's map feature plausibly sends location data, which the app's label already declares collecting and sharing (approximate and precise location, device IDs), so this contact does not on its face imply an undeclared data flow.
OpenAI — unknown
The provided information does not establish what api.mapbox.com is used for in this app or identify its ownership. The app's label already declares collection and sharing of location, identifiers, and usage-related data, so an undisclosed flow cannot be determined from this contact alone.
Google Gemini — cdn
api.mapbox.com is operated by Mapbox to deliver map tiles and location API services. This contact appears disclosed as the app explicitly declares collecting and sharing both approximate and precise location data alongside device identifiers.
