About this app

Protect your privacy from spyware, stalkerware & monitoring apps — with Anti Spy Detector & Scanner CB by cb innovations (Made in Germany).
Developed and maintained by cb innovations with a focus on privacy and clarity.
Your Android phone contains everything: private chats, photos, passwords, banking details and business data. Spy apps and mobile malware can hide in the background and try to monitor activity, redirect ads, or exfiltrate sensitive information. This Anti Spy Detector helps you scan your device, identify suspicious apps and reduce privacy risks — fast, clear and easy to use.

What can spyware / stalkerware do?
Depending on the app, threats may try to:
• read messages, call logs and notifications
• track location and build behavior profiles
• capture credentials through overlays or malicious links
• abuse permissions to keep running silently
Anti Spy Detector & Scanner CB helps you find apps that match known spy/malware patterns, so you can take action.

Spyware & stalkerware detection (spy detector for Android)
Anti Spy Detector & Scanner CB works as an anti spyware app and spyware scanner for Android. It scans installed apps and key system areas to help you:
• find spy apps & monitoring tools running in the background
• detect stalkerware that may abuse permissions (calls, messages, location)
• spot suspicious apps early — before bigger damage happens
Results are shown in a user‑friendly way so you can decide what to disable or uninstall.

100M+ threat signatures
To recognize known threats quickly, the scanner uses a database with 100,000,000+ spyware & malware signatures. This helps detect many common Android threats, including:
• HiddenAds‑style campaigns & aggressive adware
• fake apps and fraudulent apps that mimic legitimate tools
• exploits and other known malicious patterns
• banking‑style malware patterns (when known in the signature base)

Malware scan & cleanup support
Besides spyware, the built‑in malware scan can help you spot:
• trojans, ransomware and other malicious software
• adware and potentially unwanted apps
You stay in control: review findings, then choose what to keep, disable or remove.

Hacker protection for everyday use
While no app can guarantee 100% protection against every new threat, regular checks help you reduce risk. Use this anti spy app as part of a simple routine: scan after installing new apps, keep Android updated, and remove anything you don’t trust.

When should you scan?
Run a manual scan anytime — for example:
• after installing new apps (especially outside your usual vendors)
• if the phone suddenly drains battery, overheats or feels “slower”
• if you see unusual pop‑ups, redirects or unexpected data usage
• if you suspect someone installed a monitoring app without consent

Privacy‑first by design
No registration required. Scans run directly on your device.
According to the Google Play “Data safety” section, this app does not collect user data and does not share data with third parties. Data is encrypted in transit.

Defensive tool (not a spying app)
Anti Spy Detector & Scanner CB is designed to help you detect potential threats and protect your privacy. It is not intended to spy on other people.

I really would like a developer to respond to this! I really think it would be great if you could for free, get automatic scans from the app. An automatic time scheduled, and it will scan, and give you a notification from the app. If not possible, how about the app automatically tells you to scan every time, every day, for a certain part of that week?

I haven't used it much to be able to rate it 5 stars. However if it had a feature that automatically changed your settings for you I probably would rate it 4.5. It may I don't remember I made the mistake of thinking I'd try a couple. Then the other froze up and stopped and this asked to Uninstall the crashed app so I said yes. After more usage I might raise it to 5.

I really really love this app. It was literally my favorite app in the App Store. I would definitely recommend. A few months ago I deleted it tho to free storage in my phone. It was just for a while. Later then I downloaded it again. But it wasn’t the same as when I left it. Before it was easier. This app is the best but please, I need help with my issue. But again,, still a great app and am so happy I got to experience it back then.
