This app can be detrimental to you. If you're easily hackable, this app can be used against you in a vicious way, beware.. Otherwise, if you know you're 100% or 120% secure, I highly recommend it an excellent app. That's why you need to watch your security.. Even if it's turned off, and you get hacked & they find it, you're done for. This one is a buyer beware.👍🤞

you cannot edit any of the files. it shows them and teases you with the exact part you need to edit but there's no way to do it
