How is it App Store upload-safe?

Well it still uses the CAFilter private API, but I obfuscated it as a base64 string. I’ve used this method in Midnight and it worked just fine.

Also, this version gets past App Review — Janum’s original version included a objc briding header, which gets auto-rejected. This version uses a bunch of runtime objc selectors instead.

However, it’s still possible that Apple detects this, so use at your own risk.
