Re:Ask HN: No HTTPS – Why do you trust an app? by heinrichf on Thursday February 04, 2016 @12:21PM (#11035461)
You can redirect the traffic of your device through a proxy and sniff it (e.g. https://mitmproxy.org/) to determine if an app uses https or not, and furthermore if it performs certificate pinning.

Yes but how would general public know about it? Its strange that whole of the web has moved so far with the https and yet apps have no such way of knowing.
