## Description

AVO helps you check the things that actually put your phone at risk — the<br>links people send you, the apps you have installed, the networks you join,<br>and whether your email has turned up in a data breach.<br><br>LINK CHECKER — CHECK BEFORE YOU TAP<br>Paste any link and AVO checks it against Google Safe Browsing, then inspects<br>the address itself for impersonation: look-alike spellings, digit swaps<br>(paypa1, netfl1x), brand names on the wrong domain, and hidden characters.<br>This catches brand-new phishing pages that no blocklist has seen yet.<br><br>APP AUDIT<br>See where every installed app actually came from. AVO flags apps installed<br>from unrecognised sources rather than a trusted app store, apps shipping as<br>debug builds, and apps that combine permissions in ways worth a second look —<br>for example SMS access alongside accessibility or screen-overlay rights. Each<br>finding explains itself, and takes you straight to Android&#39;s uninstall screen<br>if you want the app gone.<br><br><br>WEB SHIELD — BLOCKS HARMFUL SITES ACROSS EVERY APP<br>Web Shield uses Android&#39;s VpnService API to run a filter locally on your<br>device. AVO needs VpnService because it is the only mechanism Android<br>provides for an app to inspect connections across the whole device: it is<br>what lets Web Shield check the address of every site before it loads in<br>every app and browser, rather than only inside AVO.<br><br>To be exact about what that does and does not mean: AVO does not route your<br>traffic through any server, does not encrypt it, and does not hide your IP<br>address. No remote VPN server is involved and no traffic leaves your device<br>because of Web Shield. The VpnService interface is used solely to inspect DNS<br>lookups on the device and compare them against a blocklist of 313,000 ad,<br>tracker, malware and phishing domains, refreshed automatically.<br><br>Android asks for your permission before Web Shield starts, an ongoing<br>notification is shown for as long as it is running, and you can turn it off<br>at any time from within AVO.<br><br>Note that encrypted DNS — such as Chrome&#39;s Secure DNS or a Private DNS<br>setting — bypasses any on-device filter; AVO detects this and shows you how<br>to turn it off for full coverage.<br><br>DATA BREACH MONITORING<br>Check whether your email address has appeared in a known data breach. Turn on<br>Dark Web Watch and AVO will notify you if it shows up in a new one.<br><br>APP PRIVACY ADVISOR<br>See which apps hold background location, which can install other apps, and<br>which combine permissions in ways associated with stalkerware.<br><br>DEVICE SECURITY CHECK<br>One scan of the things that genuinely protect you: screen lock, biometrics,<br>storage encryption, Play Protect, security patch age, developer options, and<br>signs of rooting or tampering.<br><br>WI-FI SAFETY<br>Tells you when you have joined an open, unencrypted network — the moment it<br>matters most — and explains the risk.<br><br>SAFE QR SCANNER<br>Scans a QR code and checks the link before anything opens.<br><br>PARENTAL CONTROLS<br>Family-safe filtering that blocks adult, advertising and malware domains on<br>this device.<br><br>WHAT AVO IS NOT<br>We would rather be clear than oversell:<br><br>• AVO is not antivirus software. It does not scan files, does not monitor<br>  your device in the background for infections, and cannot remove anything by<br>  itself. App Audit reports what it can observe about your installed apps and<br>  leaves every decision to you.<br>• AVO is not a VPN. It does not encrypt your internet traffic or hide your IP<br>  address. Web Shield filters harmful domains on your device.<br>• AVO cannot read other apps&#39; private data. Android&#39;s security model prevents<br>  this for every app.<br><br>PRIVACY<br>Analytics are anonymous and privacy-focused. AVO never collects your browsing<br>history, your messages, or your contacts.
