It's a very dumb device. If you don't put in a separate wifi module it literally has no way to phone home.

Would you be willing to elaborate on the FZ phoning home?

The FZ itself is very unlikely to even be capable of phoning home.

I do sometimes wonder how concerned I need to be about the companion app though.

What use case?

I got mine to make a backup copy of the remote controls that I'm worried about losing, which happen to be sub-GHz and infrared.

Edit for all replies: I'm coming from a place of lack of education; it's not that I know FZ is phoning home, it's that I know I wouldn't be able to tell if it was.

considering it has no wifi or gsm capabilities that is going to be pretty hard trick to achieve

The firmware is open source
