Sure, it runs Android. What did people expect? They aren't going to build a custom system from scratch.

The appeal is the form factor

They claim they made a custom os, so its totally reasonable to assume they are going to build a custom system from scratch

https://www.rabbit.tech/rabbit-os

They make no mention of AOSP

And finally, the whole thing is just an app and the device is entirely pointless

edit. and after watching someone use it - whats the point?! Its just a phone with a much worse interface, a terrible form factor, and it doesn’t even function.

Is OP the rabbit CEO or something

Oh ffs, what a shitty, juvenile website. All lowercase, no real explanation of what it does, other than track users by having everything go through their servers.

Sounds like a scam to me.

And push to talk? Who uses that anymore? Welcome to 2000.
