mobile-gw.spot.im

classified as tracker · 2

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.

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=unknown, openai=tracker, gemini=tracker. A human reviewed this domain's claims before anything here published.

Anthropic Claude — unknown

spot.im is the domain of Spot.IM/OpenWeb, a third-party commenting and conversation platform, and 'mobile-gw' appears to be its mobile SDK gateway endpoint; that role does not map cleanly onto tracker, analytics, advertising, CDN, or first-party, so I classify it as unknown pending confirmation of the payload. The app's label declares no collection or sharing at all, yet contact with a third-party engagement platform's gateway implies at least some device or user data leaving the app, so it appears undisclosed — a human reviewer should verify the actual request contents before publishing.

OpenAI — tracker

mobile-gw.spot.im appears to be a third-party Spot.IM mobile gateway used for audience-engagement functionality, which can receive device/network request data. The app declares no collection or sharing, so this third-party contact appears undisclosed.

Google Gemini — tracker

Spot.im (now OpenWeb) is a third-party social engagement and tracking platform for publishers. Because the app declares collecting and sharing no data in its privacy label, contacting this third-party domain appears undisclosed.

Think something here is wrong?

Evidence and research improve when people push back. Tell us what to re-check — a misattributed domain, an outdated classification, a claim about your own app — and a human will review it. Responses can take up to 30 days.

If you leave an email it is encrypted at rest and opened only to answer you — never shared, never used for anything else. It is erased 30 days after we resolve this (or 180 days if it is still open) without you asking, and you can erase it sooner at any time; either way your correction stays, anonymously. Leave it blank and your request is fully anonymous from the start (we store no IP address either way).
