The new EULA raises some questions that aren’t easy to answer. When this app goes live, the EULA is sure to get some scrutiny. “Pathcheck Inc” has zero public profile, no website explaining what it is etc. It does not appear on google at all, even if you search for it alongside Safe Paths. I had to look up in a Massachussetts business directory to find any info at all. At least when I did, some names were recognizably part of the Safe Paths project.
Are we happy with the Team section on the About page? It refers to TripleBlind, EyeNetra, Lin Ventures. For TripleBlind, at least there are some traceable connections to the project. The connections and relevance of EyeNetra and Link Ventures are unclear and un-googleable as far as I can tell. This all seems might appear (to someone of a suspicious mind) a bit shady. Together with the fact that Pathcheck Inc. is not mentioned here. Given that there is already skepticism about the role of various private entities in the project, this just seems to create more mystery & fuel for suspicion, when we could provide some much clearer information about what the various corporate entities involved are, what their roles are etc.

We have not tested the translation in the target language with a native speaker. Therefore we do not know whether there are issues with context, quality of translation, mis-spellings etc.
We found two issues in the second language:
the Android pop-up requests to access the device’s location & access photos, media & files, are both still in English (GitHub issue on the way). #676. (though Dev view is this cannot be fixed)
In the Exposure Noritication page, days of the week, months, and time units are not localized #677.
The target language has not been tested with a wide range of screen form factors. Therefore there is a risk that some text or headings does not fit the available space, on some smaller devices.
...
These will only be issues if we have to demo the Play STore STtre app. If we can continue to use APKs (which I suspect is the case) then these are non-issues
...
The app cannot be installed on multiple user accounts on a single device.
Minor cosmetic issues

Wrong shade of white in HA page # 620
Off center ripple on some phones: #617
Some text doesn’t fit available space on some smaller phones #618 (not known if similar issues exist in Haitian Creole as not tested on many different sized screens)
The app always has a permanent notification, which cannot be dismissed. #473
Brief flash of red on status screen before settling to green. # Not raised (seen on Moto G7/Android 9 - what about other phones?)
Glitch when navigating back from Dashboard to Main screen. (not new, but not in GitHub yet - to be added)
Exposure notification says March/April when all data points are in April. (also not new, but still to be added to GitHub)
