Depends on how good the e2e application is written. But yea, since android is still in the middle of data transfer, as well as IO of storage. Meaning both iOS and android can be the man the in the middle software that is tapping off the data even before it's getting encrypted.

Hopefully nobody is reading this from apple or Google, before I give them ideas. 😔

Don't worry, Google and Apple already know this....but so far we can only hope they will never agree to do something like that.

And if they do, nobody will know about it anyways.

And you also don't know if they are doing this already. So who knows it might be happening already.
