Germ Busters: Hygiene Heroes

Playful hygiene games for kids: handwashing, brushing teeth, and covering coughs. No ads, no accounts, no personal data collection.

Germ Busters: Hygiene Heroes is a kid-friendly educational hygiene app that helps children practice everyday healthy habits through playful germ-busting activities.

Children create a simple Germ Buster character, battle cartoon germs, and complete hygiene activities for handwashing, brushing teeth, and covering coughs. Each activity turns a real-world routine into a simple game: kids encounter cartoon germs, complete the hygiene task, earn stars or rewards, and unlock tools or character gear.

Features: • Handwashing activity with a propped-phone mirror mode • Cartoon germ battles using tap and hand-motion interaction • Hands-free 20-second handwashing timer • Optional running-water sound detection to help start the timer • Brushing activity with a guided brushing timer and simple prompts • Cover-cough practice activity • Stars, stickers, tools, and character gear • Parent Mode with privacy information, progress, and optional local reminders • Permission fallbacks if camera or microphone access is denied

Privacy and safety: Germ Busters does not collect personal data, does not require an account, does not include ads, and does not include in-app purchases.

Camera access is used only for live mirror-style gameplay. Camera frames are processed on the device for hand-position interaction and are not saved, uploaded, or shared.

Microphone access is used only to estimate loudness for optional running-water detection during the handwashing activity. Audio is not recorded, saved, uploaded, or shared. A manual Start Timer button is always available.

Progress, rewards, profile nickname, avatar choice, reminder preferences, and app settings are stored locally on the device. They are not sent to a server.
