I asked Matthew about the 21 day data dump. He confirmed it is a
rolling dump, not "all" data dumped at 21 days, which made more sense.
In other words, there is a 21 day store of data that is first in,
first out updated.

 There's a pretty decent breakdown of the Android app here:

 "The Android app looks to be written in Kotlin and uses Android
building 
 blocks like activities, services, broadcast receivers, RoomDatabase, 
 Retrofit etc

 Industry standard stuff."

 The data is expired after 21 days.
