Yes, Skyica has been mentioned a few times (not many times) ... but only
by YOU in this newsgroup in the last 4 months (*).  From your claim of
involvement with its development, and your own enthusiastic usage, you
have an obvious vested interest in proselytizing it.

  (*) I purge articles in my NNTP client that are over 4 months old. 
      The older the article, the less relevant it becomes. 

Other than searching the message store in their Usenet client, no one
(but you) is going to dedicate engrams on outdated discussions.  I only
recall hearing about Skyica in 4 threads here ... always started by you.

Is 4 considered a few or *many* (bolding means VERY MANY)?

Skyica was "founded" in late 2022.  Not sure when they first released
App Finder.  Didn't find a release history to see when it showed up.
Looks to have shown up around Sep 2023 according to Google Groups
discussions, or Nov 2023 according to:

But below starts an XDA forum discussion in Apr 2023:
