I happened to have installed this app just now & took a look at it in the Muntashirak App Manager, which said it violates Write or Execute policy...

The app violates W^X policy and is capable of
writing and executing in the same directory or
in the same portion of memory. This allows
the execution of arbitrary executables either
by the modification of executables embedded
within the app or by downloading them from
the Internet. Unless this is the intended
behavior of the app (e.g. terminal emulators),
it is recommended to find a newer version of
the app that targets SDK 29 (Android 10) and
later, or find alternatives.

W^X ("write xor execute", pronounced W xor X) is a security
feature in operating systems and virtual machines. It is a
memory protection policy whereby every page in a process's
or kernel's address space may be either writable or executable,
but not both.
Without such protection, a program can write (as data "W")
CPU instructions in an area of memory intended for data and
then run (as executable "X"; or read-execute "RX") those instructions.
This can be dangerous if the writer of the memory is malicious.
W^X is the Unix-like terminology for a strict use of the general
concept of executable space protection, controlled via the
mprotect system call.
