Hey,
I seriously wonder why you include the hex dump of the Fingerprint when an user copy the Report Details
when people share it (either on support group or here), it may lead to security issues
I guess you don't need it, even for testing the app/reproduce issues :) (it would barely come from a specific fingerprint)
That said, have a good day ❤️

Fingerprint allows filtering out reports from re-signed APKs. Having it in the Report Details doesn't lead to any security issues.

No. Moreover, apps don't have an access to the biometrics data (unless they're exploiting some device or system vulnerabilities, which is certainly not Telegram X case).

oh sorry then
the "fingerprint" name on the report isn't very explicit
then, users like me may misunderstood it 😅
