Nostr Scrutiny fact sheet: Amethyst. https://scrutiny.hivescope.xyz/amethyst.html

Some facts that stood out:
- Keys: encrypted with the Android Keystore. Remote signers (NIP-46) and Amber (NIP-55) are supported.
- The privacy policy (Sept 2026) lists what leaves the phone. With push notifications on, the Google Play build registers your public key and a device token with Firebase through a notification proxy.
- Google Play's data safety label says it collects no data at all.
- Code is MIT. GitHub release v1.20.0 (Oct 24) is newer than the Play Store version (Oct 14).
