APK Analyzer (“the app”) inspects APK and App Bundle files and installed apps — their manifests, permissions, signing certificates, native libraries and sizes. This policy explains what the app does and does not do with data.
Every analysis runs entirely on your device. The files you open, the apps you inspect, the reports the app produces — package names, certificates, hashes, manifests — are never uploaded, and the developer has no access to them. The history of analyzed files is stored only on your device and is removed when you clear it or uninstall the app.
1. Advertising. The app shows ads via Google AdMob (with Meta Audience Network as a mediation partner). The ads SDK may collect device identifiers (such as the advertising ID), coarse location derived from IP, and diagnostic signals to serve and measure ads. In the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and regulated US states, ads are only requested after you make a choice in the consent dialog (Google UMP), and you can change that choice at any time in Settings → Ad privacy options.

2. Analytics and crash reporting. The app uses Google Firebase Analytics and Crashlytics to understand which features are used and to fix crashes. Analytics events record feature usage only — for example that an analysis ran, the archive format (APK or AAB) and a coarse size bucket — never a package name, file name, hash, certificate or anything else identifying what you analyzed. Crash reports contain stack traces and device model information.
3. VirusTotal lookups you start. The
“Check on VirusTotal” button opens
virustotal.com in your browser with the file’s SHA-256
checksum. This happens only when you tap the button; the app itself sends
nothing, and the file never leaves your device — only its checksum
appears in the browser address.
The app lists installed apps that declare a launcher icon, using
Android’s standard package-visibility rules (it does not use the
QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES permission). This list is read locally to
display and analyze apps at your request; it is not collected,
stored remotely, or transmitted.
The app requests only the INTERNET permission, used for
ads, analytics and crash reporting. Files are opened through the Android
document picker with your explicit selection each time (or via a
permission you can revoke by clearing the app’s data).
The app is a developer utility and is not directed at children under 13.
Changes to this policy will be posted at this address with a new effective date.
