Ad Detect Plugin

Your apps are hiding trackers and wasting data. Detect every ad library and tracking module with Ad Detect Plugin.

Ad Detect Plugin scans installed applications to identify embedded advertising SDKs, analytics modules, and third-party tracking components. The tool provides a detailed breakdown of each ad network present in your apps, revealing which platforms collect usage data and serve promotional content. This gives you full visibility into the software stack running on your device.

Core Detection Capabilities

The plugin performs a comprehensive audit of every application on your device. It cross-references package names, manifest permissions, and known signature patterns against an extensive database of advertising and tracking libraries. The scan covers major ad networks including AdMob, Facebook Audience Network, Unity Ads, AppLovin, and over 200 other SDKs. Each detected component is displayed with its developer name, version information, and a risk classification based on data collection practices.

Scanning Modes and Reporting

Three distinct scanning modes are available for different use cases. Quick Scan checks only recently installed or updated applications. Full Scan examines every app on the device, including system applications. Custom Scan lets you select specific applications for targeted analysis. Results are presented in a sortable list with color-coded severity indicators. Green marks apps with no ad libraries, yellow indicates moderate tracking, and red highlights applications with extensive ad integration.

Key Advantages

• Detects over 250 advertising and tracking SDKs from global developers
• Provides per-app breakdown of ad network presence and data collection scope
• Supports batch scanning of all installed applications in under 30 seconds
• Exports scan reports as CSV files for documentation or sharing
• Updates library database weekly to include newly released tracking modules

Data Privacy Tools

Beyond detection, the plugin offers actionable options for managing identified trackers. You can disable permissions for apps with excessive ad libraries, view detailed manifest permission explanations for each detected SDK, and access direct links to app settings for uninstallation or permission revocation. All scan data remains on-device with no external transmission of results.

Real-Time Monitoring

Background monitoring alerts you when newly installed applications contain tracking libraries. The plugin checks each new installation against its database and sends a notification with the detected ad networks within seconds. This proactive approach ensures you stay informed about every app's tracking behavior without manual rescanning.
