About

TenantShield

Features
Read full description

Got an eviction notice? Most tenants never respond, and many lose by default. TenantShield helps you get organized and reach free legal help fast, in plain language. - Enter the details from your papers and keep the dates that matter in one place, with a reminder to confirm each one with the court clerk. - Answer a few simple questions to see which defenses may apply to your situation. - Build a private evidence folder: photos, PDFs, short videos, and notes, sorted by rent, repairs, and notices. - Find free legal aid, hotlines, and court contacts for your state. TenantShield is a self-help tool, not a law firm, and not legal advice. It does not file anything with a court and does not calculate court deadlines for you. Always confirm your dates with the court clerk, and talk to a lawyer or legal aid. Your case stays on your phone. No account, no tracking, nothing uploaded. Evidence files are encrypted on your device. Currently covers Michigan, California, New York, and Texas.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Alpena Auto at none against TenantShield's 1. Alpena Auto also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.4). TenantShield's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 6 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
