It sounds like it’s a new app using existing encryption.
That doesn’t say anything. I can tell you “I am using AES256” which is a proven cipher, but I can use it totally wrong, by using an inadequate block mode or not initializing it correctly. Or by using shitty keys, inadequate pseudo-random sources, etc.
And you can leak metadata left and right, while having the actual message encrypted.
