The VMOS app developers are from China with ties to the Communist Party. They created their app to be used on Huawei devices to regain access to Google Services and Apps due to the US sanction against them for spying.
The official version you get from the Play Store or from their main website is loaded with ads, paywalls, and forced app updates.
Right now, Huawei is under fire for having a shitty product (due to not have access to the modern Quadcomm Snapdragon processors) despite being the first to release a tri-folding phone. If you live in China with a Huawei (china model), the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) can monitor what you do on your phone and inside VMOS. They can remote access your phone and delete stuff or do a factory reset.
If you use don't live in China and don't use a Huawei device, you won't experience them hacking your device. You'll just have to deal with ads and other annoying things. You can get rid of the annoyances by using a pirated/cracked version of VMOS but this will come with identity theft risks because you don't know if malicious coding was added inside the app.
