The EU age verification app is designed to not reveal any information other than the userโ€™s age being over 18. https://digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/en/faqs/eu-age-verification-solution

And is there any source code that can inequivocally demonstrate that? No. Then the only rational thing is to believe that they're just lying and selling snake oil as they always do.

The apps have not been released, but even so you can see the source code for each prototype on their GitHub. Please try to find out about stuff before you make claims. All the source code that exists is available for your perusal. https://ageverification.dev/Setup
