Still, stay alert
No major threat indicators — but a clean scan does not guarantee every page is safe, and phishing emails routinely spoof real domains.
- Double-check the exact URL in your address bar
Confirm you are actually on gradients.app and not a lookalike like g-radients.app.com or an IDN homoglyph.
- Use a password manager
Password managers only auto-fill on the exact domain they were saved for — they refuse to fill lookalike domains, which is the single best phishing defence.

Safety FAQ
Common questions about this site, answered from the scan data on this page. These are auto-generated — not hand-written — so they always match the underlying report.
- Our automated security review found no threat indicators on gradients.app. The site appears legitimate based on the signals we checked, but always stay alert for phishing emails that spoof real domains.
- gradients.app passed our automated security checks with a trust score of 86/100. No antivirus engines or major blacklists flagged the site at the time of the last scan.
- Yes. gradients.app presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Let's Encrypt · R12, expiring in 35 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.
- gradients.app is 8.1 years old, registered on 5/10/2018 through Squarespace Domains II LLC.. Scam domains are often freshly registered — a site under 6 months old warrants extra caution.
- No. gradients.app is not currently listed on the major browser blocklist feeds that modern browsers use.
- gradients.app resolves to an IP operated by JSC TIMEWEB in RU (usage type: Data Center/Web Hosting/Transit). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad, but unusual geography for a brand's claimed country is one of many signals we weigh.
- We cache results for 24 hours. Signed-in MalwareTips members can trigger a manual rescan at any time using the "Rescan" button on the report page, which re-runs every check from scratch and refreshes this page.
