TrackerSonar finds hidden tracking devices around you. Scan for Bluetooth trackers and tags in seconds and get a clear answer: "No trackers found" or "1 possible tracker nearby". Check your bag, your car or a hotel room, see which devices keep showing up near you and walk straight to a hidden tag with a hot/cold signal meter. SCAN FOR HIDDEN TRACKERS Tap "Scan for Trackers" and watch the live radar fill up. Possible trackers are listed first, followed by other nearby Bluetooth devices such as AirPods and Apple devices. Simple filter chips keep the list tidy. SEE WHAT NEEDS YOUR ATTENTION SUSPICIOUS marks tags that can be used to track people. TRACKED marks devices that were seen at several places. Mark your own tags as known and they no longer show up as suspicious. FIND THE DEVICE WITH LIVE LOCATE Live Locate follows one device's Bluetooth signal in real time. The gauge and haptic ticks grow stronger as you get closer, so you can find a tag tucked into a bag, a coat or a car. On supported tags, play a sound to hear where it is. The same finder helps you locate your own earbuds or headphones nearby. IS IT FOLLOWING ME? Every scan remembers where devices were seen. The sightings map and timeline show when and where a device turned up near you, so you can tell whether something really moves with you. ALERTS IN THE BACKGROUND Turn on continuous scan and get a notification when a tracker shows up near you, even while TrackerSonar runs in the background.

Bluetooth & Tracker Detector Protect your privacy. SafeScan detects hidden Bluetooth trackers, unknown devices, and suspicious electronics around you in real time. -- BLUETOOTH SCANNER -- Scan your surroundings for all nearby Bluetooth devices. SafeScan identifies AirTags, Samsung SmartTags, Tile, Chipolo, Pebblebee, Flipper Zero, and other BLE devices. Each device is displayed with signal strength, estimated distance, and detection frequency so you always know what is around you. -- SMART RISK ASSESSMENT -- Every detected device is analyzed by a built-in risk engine. SafeScan evaluates tracker signatures, unnamed broadcasts, signal proximity, duration of presence, and repeated detections to assign a clear risk level: Safe, Suspicious, or Potential Tracker. You get a plain explanation of why each device was flagged, not just a label. -- PRECISION TRACKER -- Found a suspicious device? Use the Precision Tracker to locate it physically. A live signal gauge shows your proximity percentage in real time, with estimated distance in meters. Sound and haptic feedback guide you as you walk closer. Move slowly, watch the percentage increase, and pinpoint the exact location. -- MAGNETIC FIELD SCANNER -- Go beyond Bluetooth. The Mag Scan feature uses your phone's magnetometer to detect hidden electronic devices such as cameras, recording equipment, and other electronics concealed in walls, bags, or furniture. A real-time graph displays field magnitude with baseline comparison and anomaly alerts when readings spike above normal levels. -- DEVICE DETAILS & HISTORY -- Tap any device to see full details: device type, signal strength, MAC address, manufacturer data, first seen time, and a signal history chart. Review your scan history to track patterns over time. -- WHITELIST & SAFE LIST -- Mark your own devices and trusted accessories as safe.
