<Thread> Hi @Oneplus! Every time I boot my #Oneplus5, a HTTP POST request to http://apiinit.amap.com/v3/log/init is made. This request contains a timestamp and the code of the sending app.pic.twitter.com/7TEDCoMqTs

The amap Android SDK provides "[...] map-related features, including: map display (including indoor and outdoor maps), interact with the map, draw on the map , Point of interest search, geocoding, offline maps and other functions." http://lbs.amap.com/api/android-sdk/summary …
This SDK is heavily used by @OnePlus in his apps. So it's not surprising to see this initialisation request which does not contain any sensitive data. But let's think...
Whenever an @OnePlus user starts his phone, this request is made. This is an information. It's mean a 3rd party company, located in China, is able to say when you boot your device without your consent.
.@Oneplus it will be good to send this request only when it's needed.
Of course, this request is made if you are not part of the User Experience Program
