DU Recorder app for Android is great. 

Completely free, no ads and no watermark. 

But I believe they are doing some shadier stuff. 

Everytime in unlock my device I see the DU Recorder icon pops for a while in the statusbar also when I am not using the app it just pops randomly in the statusbar. 

And by sometime I mean every damn time.

The notification log shows it's activity.

Can anyone please confirm that they are doing anything shady or suggest me something else. 

Also I tried force stopping the app but it still comes up.
