Default Can the eBay/ PayPal app in phone read your WiFi (even changing IP)?

I have connected one of my cell phones with my dinamic router via WIFi

(The one I use for my stealths, but of course always changing IP's by disconnecting it each time I switch between accounts ...)

I have installed and used the PayPal app (without giving any permissions).

Am I in risk of being linked anyhow?

Or is it only the phone the "thing" toasted?

Those kind of apps (eb, pp) are notorious for taking in the phone info - you aren't using the app amongst several accounts right? Just one account?

Just one account per phone of course!,

What about leaking the router info?, do I get caught if using the same router on different phones=accounts with the PayPal or eBay apps installed?

Each time I use the apps on each phone using WiFi I disconnect the router giving me a dinamic=different IP

Am I safe?
