About this app

Paranoid for Android analyzes all the apps installed on your device to identify apps which could be spying on you. It does this by analyzing the combination of permissions granted to each app.

For example, an app which can determine your exact location is fine: an app that can determine your location and report it back to someone else using SMS or the internet is more risky. A well-known messaging app which also tracks your location and your phone calls for no valid reason is definitely questionable, as many people have only just discovered.

This is a free app: if you like it or find it useful, please consider buying me a coffee (in app purchase) to encourage future development.

This is a handy tool to have on your phone. It keeps you from having to go through each and every app to check permissions and then decide whether the app actually needs all permissions requested. Sometimes I would not think an app needed a permission that come to find out it had good reason for it. Just simplifies by analyzing those things for you then makes a recommendation based on what it finds.It doesnt remove anything or turn off any permissions. This just gives you the info you need to make that final decision of whether or not to delete the app yourself. Saves me TONS of time from investigating. Thanx developers! A+ to you!
