Reading a lot about apps being vulnerable for hackers lately. How secure are the apps built with BuzzTouch and is there anything specific for a non-coder to do to safeguard their build?

'Adding' something to the bundle is impossible, so after the app is released, there is no good way to 'modify' it via hack or anything else. If you have a clean 'source' machine, then you should be good. Cheers! -- Smug Comments The app? The App is compiled.

Not sure exactly if that is the question or not. Comments The apps source code is not encrypted if that answers more specifically your question. Not sure exactly if that is the question or not.

Code is hardly (never) encrypted. The Developer must explicitly specify which data is encrypted. It is just a few lines of code to specify which data file to encrypt. For iOS, there is built-in Data Protection. However, that is only in effect if and only if the User has a Passcode or TouchID on the "Swipe to Unlock" screen. What are you trying to protect?
