Do your own research!
Try out searching for "lost bitcoins", "stole my money" or "scammers" together with the wallet's name, even if you think the wallet is generally trustworthy. For all the bigger wallets you will find accusations. Make sure you understand why they were made and if you are comfortable with the provider's reaction.
The Analysis
Update: @StevieZollo sent a tweet:
@WalletScrutiny @LeoWandersleb it looks like you reviewed @HavenPrivacy the day before it went open source. You can find its source code here: https://github.com/OpenBazaar/haven
so we can check its source code after all. Let’s see how that goes:
Just in case, we reviewed their website again if this is the official repo but there is no link to it, so that doesn’t leave us with much hope. Also: Unless the provider endorses this repository, you should not assume it is anything official or trustworthy! Anyway …

So there is essentially only one revision as far as the Android app goes. Changes to license or readme should not affect the app on Android itself. The missing tag will be a problem later on though.
root@4be0f50e58d3:/mnt# apt install nodejs npm -y
root@4be0f50e58d3:/mnt# npm install -g npm yarn
root@4be0f50e58d3:/mnt# yarn
root@4be0f50e58d3:/mnt# apt install curl
root@4be0f50e58d3:/mnt# yarn
root@4be0f50e58d3:/mnt# find . | grep '\.env'
At this point, the build instructions read
Copy
.envfile to the root directory
but according to find . | grep '\.env' there is no .env file anywhere. The instruction:
The env file should look like this:
BRANCH_KEY= COUNTLY_ROOT_URL= COUNTLY_APP_KEY= STREAM_API_KEY= STREAM_APP_ID= HMAC_SECRET=
looks like the provider is not sharing all details necessary to build this app but let’s see what happens …
It doesn’t get better. Next we are supposed to
Copy those files into
havenBuildConfigFilesfolder:AppCenter-Config.plist GoogleService-Info.plist appcenter-config.json google-services.json
and again those are not files provided by the company.
So to little surprise, compiling doesn’t go all too well:
root@4be0f50e58d3:/mnt/android# cd android/
root@4be0f50e58d3:/mnt/android# ./gradlew clean assembleRelease
...
