AirGuard - AirTag protection

Protect yourself from Apple's Find My Tracking

New in version 2.4.1

- Optimized Samsung SmartTag detection
- Now detecting trackers that try to evade some tracking detection strategies

With AirGuard you get the anti-stalking protection you deserve!
The app scans your surroundings in the background to find trackers such as AirTags, Samsung SmartTags or Google Find My Device trackers. If the app finds out that a tracker is following you, you will receive a notification.

These trackers are only the size of a coin and are often used to track people. Unfortunately, each tracker works differently, so you often need multiple apps to detect tracking.
AirGuard combines the detection of different trackers so you only need one app to keep you safe.

Once a tracker has been found, you can make it ring (doesn't work on all models) or go searching with a manual scan.
If you find a tracker, we advise you to deactivate it so that it no longer tracks your location.

The app only saves your location locally to show you later where a tracker has followed you. This app never shares personal data.

If the app does not find any trackers, then the app will not bother you.

Versions

Although APK downloads are available below to give you the choice, you should be aware that by installing that way you will not receive update notifications and it's a less secure way to download. We recommend that you install the F-Droid client and use that.
