About this extension
APK Safety Scanner helps you evaluate APK download pages before clicking any download button.

Many APK websites contain multiple “Download” buttons, including ads and misleading links. This extension helps you identify the real download button and understand potential risks on the page.

🔍 HOW IT WORKS

Open an APK download page and click the extension icon. The scanner analyzes visible page elements and provides a simple Safety Score based on risk signals. It highlights the real download button and flags suspicious elements such as fake buttons or unnecessary redirects.

✅ FEATURES

• Safety Score — Classifies pages as Safe, Caution, or Risky
• Real Download Detection — Highlights the correct download button
• Fake Button Detection — Identifies misleading or ad-based buttons
• Domain Awareness — Helps distinguish trusted vs unverified sources
• Redirect Detection — Warns about suspicious redirect chains
• HTTPS Check — Alerts if the connection is not secure

🔒 PRIVACY

All analysis is performed locally in the browser.
No personal data is collected, stored, or transmitted.
No tracking or external requests are used.

⚡ PERFORMANCE

Lightweight and fast. The extension runs only when the user activates it.

⚠️ DISCLAIMER

This tool provides a risk assessment based on visible signals. It does not guarantee file safety or detect malware. Always download from trusted sources when possible.
