Not all internet traffic is chats
If they have backdoor access to chats it doesn’t matter if you use their WiFi or not.

To be fair (op seems tech illiterate but he might have a point) you could track MAC addresses. My phone randomise my MAC but maybe every phone doesn’t ?

AFAIK every semi-modern phone does mac address randomisation now

What will tracking MACs give them? They will now that such and such MAC address connected to such and such WiFi router. What will they do with it? What is the risk here?

I wouldn’t be concern about the MAC addresses but about the app mentioned in the article. Why do you need an app for this? What data will it collect about you?
