AppSquach reviews the apps installed on an Android phone and explains, in plain language, which ones hold unusual power or behave in ways worth checking — so you, or someone helping you, can decide what to keep.
Android app. Google Play listing coming soon.
Checks every installed app for powerful Android access — accessibility services, notification access, device-admin control, “appear over other apps” — for where it was installed from, and for rogue-launcher or rogue-keyboard behaviour. Each app gets a simple rating and the reasons behind it.
The safety engine that watches for changes since the last check — “this app just gained accessibility access” — and offers a clear path back if a suspicious app has quietly become your Home screen or keyboard. It never removes anything itself; removal always goes through Android’s own screen.
If an advertisement appears out of nowhere, AppSquach can help work out which recently-used app most likely caused it, then point you at that app to review. This is optional and asks permission with a plain explanation first.
A family member or caregiver can pair their phone by scanning a code, with both people confirming the same number. They can then receive a short safety summary or be asked to look at one specific app. Sharing is end-to-end encrypted and can be switched off at any time.
The analysis runs on the device. AppSquach has no ads, no analytics, no crash-reporting, and no account or login. Your list of installed apps is not uploaded. See the Privacy Policy for the details.
Large text, high contrast, plain wording, and no jargon. Ratings are “nothing stands out”, “good to know”, “worth a look” and “please review” — never “virus” or “guaranteed safe”.
AppSquach is a review aid, not antivirus. It uses risk indicators and heuristics, so results can include false positives and false negatives, and it cannot promise to catch every harmful app. Always read the reasons shown before removing anything.
