About Privacy Scanner
Run a manual privacy scan whenever you want a clear view of your installed apps. Privacy Scanner checks granted app permissions, highlights apps that may need attention, and gives you a simple privacy score so you can see how your device looks at a glance.
Review apps by permission type, open Android app settings to manage permissions, and mark trusted apps as safe so they no longer affect your scan results or privacy score.
Key features:
Manual privacy scans
Start scans only when you choose. No automatic startup scan.
Privacy score
Get a simple score based on apps with sensitive permissions.
Permission categories
Review apps with access to location, microphone, camera, and other sensitive permissions.
Flagged apps
See apps that may need attention based on their permission combinations.
Safe Apps list
Mark trusted apps as safe, remove them from scan results, and restore them later if needed.
App permission details
Open each app to see which permissions are granted.
Android settings shortcut
Jump directly to an app’s Android settings page to review or change permissions.
Custom scan rules
Choose whether to scan third-party apps, system apps, all permissions, or use stricter scoring.
Privacy Scanner is designed to make Android permissions easier to understand. It does not silently change permissions for you. Instead, it helps you find the apps worth reviewing and gives you a direct path to Android’s permission controls.
Take control of your app permissions with a clear, simple privacy scan.
