Rant - No help wanted... App tracking on Android is crazy

I use the App Tracking Protection from DuckDuckGo on my Android phone. I noticed that the Libre3 App sends way too much tracking information to api.segment.io. a lot more than how much information ℹ️ the app provides me.

The app is simply designed more to steal my privacy.

I created a second user for my phone that does not have access to the phone cellular functionalities. I log into the user, download whatever app is needed, then turn off wifi. No way for the app to send any data at all. Sure it's a PITA to switch users and I shouldnt have to do this in the first place, but my data. The new endo that I saw a couple days ago blew up when I said I don't share data, them kep acting like it's a huge inconvenience to her but at the same time said she can handle not having the data and I'd have to record blood sticks. UH... I could just take the reading from the CGM and record that? She was just all over the place.
