SafetyNet Google Play Warning

Applications integrating Malwarelytics for Android receive a warning in the Google Play console regarding the deprecation of the SafetyNet Attestation API and its replacement with Play Integrity API. This warning is a false positive, the developers can safely ignore it because Malwarelytics for Android does not use SafetyNet Attestation API, it only uses a common dependency.

Details

Malwarelytics for Android integrates SafetyNet Verify Apps API which is one of several APIs provided by one common SafetyNet dependency (com.google.android.gms:play-services-safetynet). Google Play automated checks seem to detect the presence of the dependency (or some of its classes) and warn the developer about the deprecation of the SafetyNet Attestation API and its replacement with Play Integrity API.

More information about SafetyNet Verify Apps API can be found in the documentation.
