Anti Spy Detector - Spyware

Check your phone for spyware without giving up your privacy. Anti Spy Detector is an antispyware scanner for Android that helps you find hidden spy apps, stalkerware, keyloggers and unwanted monitoring tools. See what the scan finds, understand the risk and choose your next step!

This anti spy app from Protectstar focuses on software that can misuse access to messages, location and account information. There are no ads, advertising IDs or third-party tracking SDKs.

A SPYWARE DETECTOR WITH PRACTICAL RESULTS
• Scan installed apps for known spyware and stalkerware.
• Check hidden or disabled apps, including those without a visible launcher icon.
• Look for malicious apps that monitor SMS or GPS location.
• Search for keyloggers, banking Trojans, backdoors and potentially unwanted apps.
• Review a detected app before deciding whether to uninstall it.

Anti Spy supports malware removal by helping you identify the app involved. Removal remains under your control and may require Android confirmation or a change to administrator permissions.

CHOOSE THE PROTECTION YOU NEED
Free Edition offers manual, signature-based spyware scans. No root access or Protectstar account is required to check your device.

Pro adds real-time protection, AI-supported detection and automatic background scans. It provides additional checks between the manual scans you start yourself.

Government Edition includes Pro features plus Heuristic Deep Scan for additional analysis. It is an advanced option, not a requirement for a basic device check.

Pro and Government features require a paid upgrade. Check the price, billing period and any trial conditions in Google Play before confirming a purchase.

HOW SPYWARE DETECTION WORKS
In its advanced protection features, Protectstar Dual Engine brings together signature matching and AI-based analysis with Deep Detective™ and Protectstar AI CLOUD. Known threat patterns support signature detection; AI helps assess suspicious behaviour. Keep detection updates current for your next malware scan.

TESTED DETECTION AND APP SECURITY
AV-TEST's January 2024 test of Anti Spyware 6.0 recorded 99.8% protection against current Android malware attacks and 100% detection of widespread malware. These results describe that test, not guaranteed protection against every threat.

DEKRA's March 2025 MASA L1 assessment evaluated app security for version 6.6.5. Detection testing and app-security assessment have different purposes.

NO ADVERTISING TRACKERS
Anti Spy does not use advertising IDs or third-party tracking SDKs. The privacy policy and Google Play Data safety section explain data processing associated with the service.

MORE THAN A ONE-TIME CHECK
Review unfamiliar apps and permissions, especially after someone else has used your phone or you have installed apps from outside Google Play. Keep Android and your apps updated. Real-time protection adds checks between manual scans; it does not replace strong passwords and account security.

A scan with no detections is useful information. It is not proof that every possible threat is absent, and normal battery or performance problems do not by themselves prove spyware.

PUT YOUR SAFETY FIRST
If an abusive person may be monitoring your device, seek help using a safer phone or computer before taking action. Removing software or changing settings can alert the person monitoring you.

Anti Spy is for detecting surveillance software, not monitoring someone else. It does not identify the person behind an attack or guarantee protection against every form of hacking.

Run a spyware scan, review the findings and choose Free, Pro or Government according to your needs. Protect your phone's privacy with clear choices and no advertising trackers.
