Mobile Privacy Audit & Anti-Tracking Tool for Android
Sentinel is a mobile static analysis tool designed to deconstruct APK files directly on your device. It identifies hidden corporate trackers, aggressive marketing SDKs, and potentially intrusive modules within installed applications.
- ** Deep Static Analysis:** Scans DEX and XML files for tracking signatures (Yandex Metrica, MyTracker, AppsFlyer, Facebook Ads, Adjust, etc.).
- ** RU-Audit Mode:** Automated security profiling for popular applications in the RU-segment (Yandex, VK, Banking apps).
- ** Chaos List Generation:** Exports a local list of identified tracking hosts for blocking via system-wide DNS filters (AdAway, NextDNS, Personal DNS Filter).
- ** Survival Guide:** A built-in knowledge base for digital hygiene, covering GPS spoofing, behavioral obfuscation, and app isolation via work profiles.
- Language: Kotlin
- UI/UX: Material Design 3 (Cyberpunk / High-Contrast Dark Theme).
- Concurrency: Kotlin Coroutines + Semaphores for high-speed, non-blocking multi-threaded scanning.
- Navigate to the Releases section and download the latest
Sentinel.apk. - Enable "Install from Unknown Sources" in your Android settings.
- The scanner requires the
QUERY_ALL_PACKAGESpermission to identify and analyze installed applications.
Pro Tip: While Sentinel works without root, for maximum isolation, it is recommended to use it alongside Shelter or [Island].
Your data is your digital fortress. Sentinel was built for those who demand transparency and want to see what corporations are hiding "under the hood" of their software. Stay invisible. Stay safe.
