About Ad Detector

Ad Detector – Find apps that may cause pop-up ads

Do you keep seeing full-screen ads or unexpected pop-up ad windows on your phone, but don't know which app is causing them?

Ad Detector checks the apps installed on your device, analyzes related signs, and points out the apps that deserve your attention.

🔍 Analyze apps on your device

Ad Detector checks information such as:

• When the app was installed
• Permission to display over other apps
• Accessibility permissions and services
• Ability to run or start automatically in the background
• Other related technical details

Based on several different signs, the app sorts the apps that need attention by level so you can check them easily.

⚠️ Find apps worth checking

Instead of relying on a single permission, Ad Detector combines multiple signals to help you identify apps that may be linked to full-screen ads, floating windows, or other annoying behavior.

Every result shows the reasons, so you understand why an app was added to the list to check.

🛠️ Quick actions

When an app needs attention, you can quickly:

• Open the app's info page
• Check or turn off its permission to display over other apps
• Review related permissions
• Mark apps you trust as safe
• Open Android's uninstall screen

📱 Easy to use

Just run a scan. Ad Detector analyzes the apps that Android allows it to check and shows the results by how much attention they need.

The app is designed to be simple, so you can check your phone without in-depth technical knowledge.

🔒 Important note

Ad Detector is not an antivirus app and does not block ads automatically.

Due to Android's limitations, no API can determine with absolute certainty which app created a specific ad. Ad Detector therefore gives an assessment based on technical signs and helps you find the apps that need a closer look.

Ad Detector does not claim an app is malicious based on its analysis alone.

If unexpected pop-up ads keep appearing on your phone, use Ad Detector to find the apps that need attention and check them more easily.
