I’ve developed an Android app designed to help keep you safe from online scams. Here’s what it currently does:

1. Detects scams in messages from unknown numbers in SMS and WhatsApp and alerts you immediately.

2. Scans links shared in conversations and warns you if they are suspicious. If they’re safe, you’ll be notified too—so you can click with confidence.

3. Verifies Instagram ads and flags any that seem suspicious or potentially fraudulent.

Privacy first: Your conversations stay entirely on your device. Only links are analyzed externally by trusted servers, and they’re neither stored nor linked to your identity.

The app is currently in testing mode, with support for SMS and WhatsApp. I am actively working on expanding to other apps like Instagram messaging, Signal, Discord, Telegram etc.
