No one has pointed to the Hong Kong law this app is supposed to be violating, including the Hong Kong authorities, who when asked basically said "go ask Apple".
Couple that with the fact that no officers have been targeted individually in Hong Kong protests since they began, and you begin to see that the whole thing sounds fishy.
What is the law being broken that no one knows about, and the cases of violence no one has heard of?

This is the part I don't understand. Sky News UK has footage of protesters targetting an undercover police officer they'd discovered and setting him alight with a Molotov cocktail before trying to take his gun. It aired here on Australia's ABC News as well. (The Molotov cocktail incident happens at 0:17 https://youtu.be/VNGJK1k2MbY )
I'm with you on the other points, and I'm confident this app wasn't involved with that incident. But claiming the protestors have never been violent or targetted individual officers doesn't seem to match with reality.
(Of course, it's also worth questioning why there were undercover police with guns in the crowds in the first place.)
