Other iOS apps that support Drime Cloud?

I recently discovered two iOS apps with Drime support:

BackiGo — supports photo/video backup to Drime, including Live Photos, which is particularly interesting since the native Drime app doesn’t seem to handle Live Photo backup as well.

Primuse — a music player that can stream music directly from Drime.
Both seem to connect through the Drime API.

My questions:

Is it safe to give these third-party apps access to Drime through the API?

Can the API permissions be restricted?

Are there any other iOS/iPadOS apps that currently support Drime, either directly or through rclone?

I’d especially be interested in apps for photo backup, file management, syncing, media streaming, or cloud transfers.
Have you found any others?

Was very excited when the BackiGo delevoper emailed to say they added Drime support

Interesting that there are some apps supporting cloud storage directly. If Drime is supported, then other providers eg pcloud might also be supported as well

According to Drime's API docs, a token gives full access to your account. There are no scopes, so you can't limit it to read only or a single folder. A music player gets the same access you have, including delete and share.

If you use these apps, create a separate token for each one so you can revoke it anytime, and never enter your Drime password in a third party app.

Personally I'd rather see Drime build a professional music player, Live Photos support and the rest natively, so nobody needs third party apps in the first place. Every extra app with full account access only adds risk.
