Immediately after I ran the app, an unskippable ad was shown, telling me that my phone is 'compromised', forcing me to install a 'security update for Android'. Google logo was shown on the ad, which I doubt its authenticity.

Seems to be accurate.. A nice feature it's feature this is that It has a Built-in Feature that evaluates whether the amount of light you are measuring At that time and Indicates If that amount of light is adequate for the Type of room that you are in

Not accurate, the light level reads more than twice the value of a dedicated light meter, Mastech.
