Is there any way to sign an image/photo with the exact time/location it was taken in a way that can't be forged?
Time + location are measurements that can be fooled.
- rh-app-dev 11mo agoTimestamp is already there. Geo-location will be added at a later date. Some devices already add that information but the app doesn't use it. It will be added eventually though.

- rh-app-dev 11mo agoThe timestamp is based on the device. However, some of the security data comes from the Witness validation server and others from the platform (Google Play Integrity/Apple App Attest). Altering the date/time on the device would conflict with that information, and possibly fail the device validation. One of the key criteria for using the app is it will only run on a device that passes validation from the platform. So rooted devices can't run the app, as they can't pass validation.
