I'm actually surprised it didn't do that in the first place. Especially in scenarios like dating and finances.

I guess trusting the app developer to implement it was their original strategy. But with all the vibe apps and countless security leaks, maybe giving it to apple/Google, who already knows what your butthole looks like, is the best solution in this use case.
