About Trace Privacy

Trace is your personal phone security guardian. Modern phones face constant threats — sketchy Wi-Fi networks, unknown Bluetooth trackers, and the looming question of who or what is nearby. Trace gives you instant visibility and clear actions, so you can move through the world feeling confident about your privacy. WHAT TRACE DOES - Bluetooth Tracker Detection Detect AirTags, Tile, Chipolo, and Samsung SmartTags around you — identified by brand. Trace's persistence engine watches devices over time and flags ones that keep reappearing as you move, even when they rotate identifiers to evade tracking. Alerts include how many times a device has been seen and whether it's following you across locations. - Wi-Fi Network Analysis + Speed Test Identify spoofed networks, evil-twin attacks, and unencrypted public Wi-Fi before you connect. Free built-in speed test measures download, upload, latency, jitter, and packet loss. Get clear "Safe / Caution / Dangerous" verdicts based on real threat intelligence. - Live Threat Feed Stay informed with curated alerts from CISA, Apple Security, Android Security, FTC scam warnings, data breach alerts from Have I Been Pwned, privacy news from the Electronic Frontier Foundation, and stalkerware research from the Coalition Against Stalkerware. Updated automatically. - Personalized Recommendations Get clear, step-by-step instructions to harden your phone's security settings. From two-factor authentication to lockdown mode, Trace tells you exactly what to do. - Background Tracker Scanning Trace keeps watching for trackers even when the app is closed. Get a notification if something persistent is following you — with brand and pattern details, not just a generic warning. - Trend Tracking Watch your security score evolve over time. See how your habits, environments, and choices affect your privacy posture. WHY TRACE IS DIFFERENT Most security apps either oversell what they do or focus on enterprise customers. Trace focuses on what's actually possible on iOS and gives you clear visibility into the rest. Built by an indie developer who believes privacy is a basic right.

What’s new

Version 1.1.1 · Updated August 27, 2026

Version 1.1.1 — Technical Details + Smarter Tracker Alerts NEW FEATURES - Technical Details mode (Pro): reveal raw protocol data on Bluetooth and Wi-Fi screens — device UUIDs, service identifiers with human names (like "Battery Service"), decoded Apple Continuity messages, and manufacturer data. For security pros and curious tinkerers. - Smarter tracker alerts: alerts now identify AirTag / Tile / Chipolo / Samsung SmartTag by brand, show how many times a device has been seen, and flag concerning patterns like "Following" or "Sustained." - Find this device: new button on tracker alerts opens a warmer/colder direction finder to physically locate a suspicious device (Pro). - Enriched notifications: push alerts now include tracker brand and pattern — "AirTag following you — seen 5× · Sustained close-range pattern" instead of a generic warning. IMPROVEMENTS - Speed test is now free for all users, with jitter and packet loss measurements alongside download, upload, and latency. - New content sources: data breach alerts via Have I Been Pwned, privacy news from the Electronic Frontier Foundation, and stalkerware research from the Coalition Against Stalkerware. - Unread indicator dots on Activity alerts, cleared automatically when read. - Tappable Activity entries jump directly to the relevant scan screen. - Wi-Fi network detection improved on iOS with real SSID display. - Cellular connections now correctly labeled instead of "Unknown network." - Splash screen redesigned with full-size logo. - Improved cold-start behavior when opening from a notification. The Bluetooth screen is now dramatically less cluttered: - Distant devices with no identifying info are hidden by default (typically neighbors' phones broadcasting from apartments away). Tap "Show all" at the bottom of the list to reveal them, or toggle permanently in Settings. FIXES - Persistence badges (Recurring / Following / Tracking) now render correctly. - Settings version display reads dynamically from the app config. - Various small layout and copy fixes.
