Has anyone taken a good look at this from a privacy standpoint? I love this in concept, but not sure if it would be privacy conscience to share credentials for all of these different apps.
No, it would not.
My personal feelings about the application aside (I am not a fan)…
I think the only one where it’s conceivable that they could have access to your credentials is the iMessage bridge, and they claim to have done a lot of backend work so they don’t store your password in any way.

One way or another you’re still temporarily sending your credentials or token to them even if they don’t store it
