Addons Detector

Want to quickly detect all push notifications and ads? Addons Detector!
"Addons Detector" is an Android app designed to detect addons used by your installed applications, including push notification ads and popup ads. It provides tools to identify and remove unwanted ads, monitor new installations for spam, and offers a live scanner feature for donors.

Although it strives for accuracy, the app cannot guarantee 100% correctness in addon detection, as some may be integrated into larger SDKs.

Nice! Very useful to let me know whois behind the app and for what the data gathered. Also a learning to let me know which depelover are truly transparent to user.

I'm learning my phone, and appreciate this app! You can choose each item and it tells you if you should worry or not, the wording is very easy you don't have to be a rocket scientist to understand. If you need help, and email them and in a short time your email is answered, very commendable.
