Addons Detector (v. 2.3) Разработано denper |
Addons Detector detects addons used by your installed applications and has tools to find push notification ads.
It's a great way to see what advertising agencies other developers use, and what tools they have integrated.
Or if you are looking for the app that uses AirPush or similar push notifications, you can easily find it and remove it.
This new 2.0 version includes more tools to find notification spam, like the notification monitor. Enable this and you can easily see which program has put that notification in your notification area.
Another cool feature that we added is the live scanner. This scanner scans newly installed and updated apps for selected addon categories and displays a notification if they are found. This feature is reserved for premium users.
To support us or to become a premium user you can easily donate now through inapp billing.

DISCLAIMER:
We can't guarantee that our results are 100% correct. Sometimes addons, like pushnotifications, are integrated in larger sdk's, and the developer doesn't need to use them, although we detect them. We strive to be conservative about marking apps as suspected, but errors can occur.

[2012-07-11] Christopher: Worked like a charm Perfect app to remove those star ads. |
|
[2012-07-10] Per: Very good! Had this very annoying ad in the notification field. Found immediately which app that was spamming. While still having the ad (shows as a star), I uninstalled that app and the notification disappeared :) |
|
[2012-07-10] Matthew: Works great Does what it claims with easy to use UI. |
|
[2012-07-10] Sam: Brilliant Absolutely brilliant app. Saved my phone from tons and tons of spamy notifications that were driving me mental. Really great app 5/5 |
|
[2012-07-10] Samantha: Does what it says on the tin Excellent! Kept getting irritating push add notifications had no idea which naughty app added them but this little gem found the culprit then I permanently unsubscribed via official air push app for example and voila no more annoying adds and I got to keep original culprit app! |
|
[2012-07-09] Killarny: Broken on tf101 On my tf101, silently closes when I tell it to scan. At least show an error, or some kind of feedback! |
|
[2012-07-09] Rain: Thank you! Great app, does precisely what I wanted it to. Thanks! |
|
[2012-07-09] Paul: Everyone needs this When you start getting annoying, push ads, this is the app to go to and track them down. Works quickly and with no problems. |
|
[2012-07-09] Brenton: excellent |
|
[2012-07-09] Casey: Ace job. Must have even if you have antivirus that does similar.. This standalone app does its job unlike any other. |
|
[2012-07-09] asteriskman: Excellent Instantly found the app that was pushing notification bar spam when AirPush Detector could not. |
|
[2012-07-08] Peter: Good app This app does exactly what it says it will do. Solves a problem for me when receiving pdf attachments to some emails. To those who cannot find their attachments, just read the explanation given as part of the description of the app in the play store. If you start the app it gives you the chance to specify the folder to store the extracted files. The default is winmail, so look in there. My only gripe is that I would like to have the option of opening the attachment after extraction. That would give it 5 stars. |
|
[2012-07-08] Slaughter: Excellent tool Did what it said it would and then some! |
|
[2012-07-08] The Butcherman: Only got rid of Airpush apps, big help. Too bad ALL apps have adons, GOOD 1s too. Any1 no what "choose xport parameters" means? Appreciate any help;-) |
|
[2012-07-08] Azaniah: Great Ap Helped me find the offending app with push notifications... thanks very much |
|
[2012-07-08] Gustavo: Great app! It helped me to erase push adv. |
|
[2012-07-07] Karan: Thank you so much for this. I wanted to get rid of my Android because I found it unacceptable that Google allowed these apps in their store. But because of this app I will stick with android. Hopefully Google implements this when approving apps. |
|
[2012-07-07] Anonymous: :-) detects GO KEYBOARD HAS PUSH NOTIFICATION CALL BOBGAME!!!! I'M SO GONNA UNINSTALL GO KEYBOARD........but another weird thing is,when I go the install date there and clicked "older" it says installed 32 years ago..lol??? |
|
[2012-07-07] TooFatKat: Excellent Great response to intrusive and expensive advertising schemes. (Yes, I mean you, AirPush) Recommended. |
|
[2012-07-07] Chris: Works :) |
|
[2012-07-06] Mark: Works Stopped my notification bar spam |
|
[2012-07-06] Mikala: Fantastic! (: My phone has been miraculously ad-free ever since this app showed me where they were coming from; I was able to delete several apps responsible for the near constant ads in my notification bar. My phone runs a lot smoother now, as well. This is definitely a useful app to have. |
|
[2012-07-06] Dave Cridland: Where can I buy this? This app tells you more about the security of your phone than anything else I've seen. It's a real eye-opener as to what applications are able to do, and what's sending advertisements and so on. Not only informative, it's also well-designed and simple to use. It's genuinely brilliant, and I'd be happy to pay for this - I've paid for much, much less useful apps. |
|
[2012-07-06] Chaser, Keagan, Midnight, Zombie Pro: Decent Decent. Needs a better layout. |
|
[2012-07-06] Silver: Thank you Words as stated |
|
[2012-07-05] Dameon: Worked better than Lookout Lookout did not find a certain app that was pushing notifications to me. Installed this one and it found it right away. |
|
[2012-07-05] Kern: Great Tool This app helped me quickly identify and remove an app that had started using push notification ads. |
|
[2012-07-05] lovesa: Fantastic, found the offending tray notification in a day! I even donated money. Irritating tray notification on my Galaxy Note turned out to be the easy MP3 application. Just take some time to learn how this app works. Thank you to the developer! |
|
[2012-07-04] Wal: Does what it says. Easy to use. Very useful for finding apps that spam you. A must have. |
|
[2012-07-04] Ertan: Good Just what I needed. |
|
[2012-07-04] Scott: Found the culprit Thank you! |
|
[2012-07-03] Nana: Very helpful. Starting getting spam notifications on my phone recently, and this app immediately helped me find out where they were coming from so I could uninstall the offenders. Thanks so much, getting rid of those ads is a real relief! |
|
[2012-07-03] Colonol: Works but Confusing UI Detected ads in GoWeather but the UI is abysmal. |
|
[2012-07-02] Tan: Great app, needs updating Recently I've encountered pushware creating a folder and pictures under the name "adcenix", I suggest adding this to the list of definitions. |
|
[2012-07-02] Debbie: Really good did what it said worked well! |
|
[2012-07-02] Andrew: Thankyou Been getting plagued with notification adverts as of late, tried lookout and many other programs like it. Installed this and it found them straight away. Hopefully this is the end of those featured casual games adverts... |
|
[2012-07-02] Anne: Great info Never knew i was bombarded with addons. 74 apps had 150 addons! No push ads id'ed. Would appreciate more detailed info on the opting out process.Have not been able to opt out of any of them. Either there is no opt out process or they want detailed info like phone number imei etc. THEY need to set up a consumer friendly and noninvasive opt out process BEFORE they start bombarding me with this stuff. Lawyers interested? |
|
[2012-07-01] Pieter: Get back at 'em! My phone MUST be on 24/7, and it's frustrating to be repeatedly woken in the middle of the night by FREAKIN ADS! Now I've hopfully put a stop to that... |
|
[2012-07-01] Lucy: Did the job - easy Great - allowed me to easily find & remove an app which was causing pop up spam notifications even when I wasn't using it. V easy to use. |
|
[2012-07-01] Budskijr: Wow! I had no clue. I had been wondering where all that stuff was originating. |
|
[2012-07-01] Johnny P: A must have app This app helps you track down, uninstall, and report any app that puts ads in your notification bar. It's a must have for android phones. |
|
[2012-07-01] Will: Awesome! This is great for finding which apps are sending you spam, and the Livescan feature is invaluable! |
|
[2012-07-01] manten: Love it It scans fast and ifentifies very well. The Lookout app that is suppose to do the same, fails in epic fashion |
|
[2012-06-30] pipi: My Very Deepest Thanks I downloaded this app to find the source of the airpush ads in my notification bar and it worked beautifully! I did uninstall this app after finding the culprit.. but i intend to download it again the next time i have the issue.. my very deepest thanks! |
|
[2012-06-30] stesmo: Caught the app spamming my notification bar This identified one of the GO DEV team apps (GO Weather) is putting ads for suspicious looking games in my notifications bar (push ads) that another Push Ad Detector app didn't. Thanks! |
|
[2012-06-29] Pat Murray: Push notification Found it, killed it. Great stuff! |
|
[2012-06-28] Andrew: Great app Awesome app, found what was causing ads to pop up when airpush detected nothing. |
|
[2012-06-28] Jon: Doesn't work I have never seen this application run. Tried many times. Just hangs on a black screen |
|
[2012-06-28] Spookie: Best App For Push Notifications This was the only app that got rid of ALL of the annoying ad notifications. I'm happy. :) |
|
[2012-06-28] Piero Filippin: Simply the best Tried the top 5 ads detection apps, this is the only one which found the source of the annoying push ads I was experiencing. Definitely a keeper! |
|
[2012-06-27] Dylan: Works perfect! Does anyone as advertised and help get rid of those pesky ads! Thanks! |
|
[2012-06-26] Anonymous: Thank you so much! ! This app saved me from those eternal push ads ! Highly recommend after only one use! |
|
[2012-06-26] NotDangerous: Caught Something the others didn't. Great job! |
|
[2012-06-26] Luis_Angel: GREAT APP GOT RID OF MY DAM SPAM! |
|
[2012-06-26] Abe: Wow! Thank for this app. I have been looking for a way to detect what software actually started spamming my phone. |
|
[2012-06-25] RogueDogg: Found push notification apps! Great app, it found 2 apps pushing ads & easily allowed me to manage/uninstall them. A+ |
|
[2012-06-24] Yohny: Thanks! Great, get rid of apps with pop up ads! Thank you! |
|
[2012-06-23] FDisk: Thanks Thanks. I found a spam app "go keyboard" |
|
[2012-06-23] Christopher: Looks pretty Doesn't actually tell you much. Finding a problem app really just comes down to knowing when a problem started and what apps have recently been installed. |
|
[2012-06-23] Phill: Great app Really usefully for tracking crap. Finds it. You can then decide what to do about it. |
|
[2012-06-23] Yaser: Galaxy s2 This app is awsome! Push notifications were killing me! I installed this app,showed me which app is pushing adds, i deleted them, i'm living a better life now :) thank you. |
|
[2012-06-22] Tony: Worked for me! After every phone call i was getting a notification ring. Thanks to this app i dont want to kill myself anymore or break my phone. Awesome! |
|
[2012-06-22] yaya: Great No more advertisement spams |
|
[2012-06-22] Cesar: Ads and privacy Shocking how many Apps have internet connections for legit reasons or not. |
|
[2012-06-22] scott: Thank u Found my problem in like 30 sec. Wonderful app |
|
[2012-06-21] Angel: failed failed to detect airpush program. use airpush detector better. |
|
[2012-06-21] Tim Markowski: Great for identifying apps pushing add Was the only app that actually helped me identify which apps were pushing ads into the notification bar. First use was a little frustrating but rather intuitive after a few moments. Thanks! |
|
[2012-06-21] Rendezvous-trance: YES!!!!! Installed airpush and other programs like it and it just kept giving me one app! Finally installed this one and it detected two additional apps and as soon as i uninstalled those apps, the notifications stopped and they were automatically removed from notification bar! I love this app!!!! |
|
[2012-06-20] smith: Found app that was spamming notification bar! Great! |
|

|
[2012-06-19] Garron: Perfect Found the culprit ASAP...deleted the app and no more push notification spam. Works perfectly! |
|
[2012-06-18] lyewii: Stunningly Great! Shows every little thing ALL your Apps are doing..behind your back..so to speak. And tells you if you need to worry about ANY add-ons, or permissions you've allowed w/each app. AND any stuff you did NOT know an App was doing!! |
|
[2012-06-18] grantcothran: Thanks It worked, enough said. |
|
[2012-06-18] harry: Huawei g300 Helps Keep away the pesky airpush |
|
[2012-06-18] Daniel: Awesome Every 12 minutes I was getting an ad in my notifications bar. It was doing my head in. This is the only app that could find the menace so I could weed it out. Thank you |
|
[2012-06-18] C: Great! I had an app that said it was a widget. Wouldn't work but still blocked up space on my screen. I had to pretend it was showing and slide it off because I couldn't add things anymore. Couldn't uninstall it. Tries this and boom! Found it and got rid of it! Not sure I want to download anything anymore but have this now |
|
[2012-06-18] Jamey: DOES WHAT IT SAYS worked and showed me which apps were causing the spam and notifications, thanks! |
|
[2012-06-17] Chris: Very useful Very useful |
|
[2012-06-16] BlackTigress777: No Only fully works One time on my phone. Uninstall. |
|
[2012-06-16] Doc: A must have ap! Not only found and stopped a push ad ap, the permission inspector is truly eye opening: discovered Live Locker can read everything on my phone, it can control almost every part of it including ability to make calls to any number without me knowing. 5 stars, no sweat. |
|
[2012-06-15] Tony: Easy fix for phone SPAMWARE Great app dev. Thanks for cleaning up my phone. |
|
[2012-06-15] Julia: Does the job well This tool shouldn't be necessary in the first place, but since Google decided not to let me have control of my push notifications, the tool is amazingly useful. |
|
[2012-06-15] moto4sho: Found several bad apps Awesome easy to use app that categorized by permissions and easily shows the apps that are spamming the phone. |
|
[2012-06-15] DracoDan: Notification spamming spyware included! Started getting spam notifications after installing this app. Scammed with addon detector and this garbage was found to be the culprit. DO NOT INSTALL!!! |
|
[2012-06-15] Matt: Found the app spamming my notification bar It is so frustrating getting notifications for free Ipads etc. Spent a lot of time googling and finally found someone talking about this app. Installed and had the other app removed in less than 60 seconds. Bravo! |
|
[2012-06-14] Anonymous: Excellent! Identified a theme (GO Blue Neon) that was opening ads. |
|
[2012-06-13] darrin: Darrin Thank you. Works great.. |
|
[2012-06-13] culfy: Did what it said Identified the rogue app |
|
[2012-06-13] Douglas: Works great Have used it multiple times to identify what program is pushing spam to my phone. Install this if you are getting spammers in your notification bar. |
|
[2012-06-12] ken: Great app Never wrote a review till now. This app totally recognized what was jammin' me with the adds .nuked those bad boys, problems solved!!! |
|
[2012-06-12] Dev1ANT: Timesaver Helped me identify that gpsfix was the app sending me push notifications. Now uninstalling that app because I can't with these ****ing notifications coming up every hour! I won't stand for it. Great app. |
|
[2012-06-12] Barry: Excellent! I started getting push notification ads (turns out from airpush via gpsfix) and a quick Google turned up the cause and solution. Addon Detector found the cause v.quick and now I don't get the ads anymore. |
|
[2012-06-11] John: Fantastic little app |
|
[2012-06-11] David: Works fast, gets updates, gives details The first time I started Addons Detector it asked to download a new set of definitions. That took awhile, but once they were downloaded the scan of apps went very fast. It's certainly good to have those updates. The information about apps that use ads is detailed, broken down into 7 categories. This includes pushes to the notification bar, and it detected a keyboard app that is responsible for some ads I've been receiving lately. Addons Detector asks to upload your apps so they can keep their information current, another good idea. Despite what one reviewer has said, it is in fact free. There is a button in the menu to donate, which seems reasonable; but the free app is highly functional. |
|
[2012-06-10] Andrei: Helped to spot bobgame pushads in Go Keyboard! This tool is invaluable! Yesterday nasty annoying pushads started appearing in my notification list, and pretending to be an sms (putting an sms icon in system tray). Airpush app did not find anything. It was the Addons detector that allowed me to spot the cheeky Go Keyboard that started pushing SPAM advertising without my consent, using bobgame module. |
|
[2012-06-10] J: Found the dodgy app spamming me Started receiving fake notifications in the bar. First it appeared legitimate (upgrade battery) but then had comments like 'WTF! You really have won!" - clearly spam! This application found out straight away that it was a wallpaper app sending them. Uninstalled and spam disappeared. Great! |
|
[2012-06-10] LegACy: Awesome Really awesome detector, it even able to detect custom notification ad =D (the one that doesn't use Airpush) |
|
[2012-06-10] Francis: Great notification ads detection! |
|
[2012-06-10] Alvin: Failed to detect an app... that was sending annoying push notifications. |
