Regarding PIN code to open the app, since there's no way to recover it, once you set it up, if you forget it you'll have to reinstall the app or use biometric authentication.
-
Regarding pagination, API return 250 items on one page, so next page is fetched after nearly 250 items are scrolled. Backend caches this data for up to 24 hours, and so to save space and unnecessary requests app caches the data too. App stores json files for each page, and reads data from them if 24 hours have not passed or page is not a newer one.
