The processing was done server-side as it is with the other thing. If you find a way to do it client-side let me know otherwise I'm not interested in your dumb product.
Yes, but it's also unauthenticated (it doesn't verify it comes from the real device, or even run an account belonging to a device owner)
You just need the app
Until they inevitably shut it down
Spoiler: when they let you know about the better device, your phone will already be much better at the same client-side processing anyway.
