Install guide

Install in four steps

Wait out the countdown above, then tap the download button. The 2.4 MB file is tiny, so even a slow connection finishes in under a minute.
Open the file from your notification shade or the Downloads folder. Android will ask permission to install apps from your browser: allow it once for this install.
Tap Install, then grant the accessibility and device-admin permissions the app requests. These are what let it block shutdowns and watch for tampering.
Open the app, tap Activate Protection, and switch on your first alarm. The install walkthrough covers every permission screen.

Troubleshooting

If the install fails

Fix 01

App not installed

Remove any older copy first (signature conflict), then install fresh.

Fix 02

Parse error

The 2.4 MB download did not finish. Re-download and confirm the file size before opening it.

Fix 03

Alarm never triggers

Disable battery optimization for the app so Android does not stop it in the background.

This is the download page for the app. The file linked below is the exact 2.4 MB build described on the homepage: signature-verified, malware-scanned, and tested on real test phones before upload. It is the free anti-theft guard with motion alarms, charger alerts, intruder selfies, and SIM change detection.

The download starts after a short six second countdown. There is no account to create and no payment step anywhere in the flow. One file fits every phone: the build is universal, so there is no 32-bit or 64-bit choice to make.

After installing, grant the accessibility and device-admin permissions the app requests, then switch on your first alarm from the main screen. The whole setup takes about two minutes.
