VOLTAGE DIVIDER Calculate ideal unloaded output voltage, divider current, total dissipation, and Thevenin resistance. No account. No ads. No analytics. No network connection.

Know what to do when a suspicious text, link, IBAN or phone number arrives. Scam Finder is a rule-based safety checker. The analysis runs on your device; the message, link or number you scan is never sent to any server. WHAT IT CHECKS • Links — domain age, certificate, redirect chain, known phishing and malware lists • Messages and SMS — urgency pressure, payment redirection, credential and code requests • Phone numbers — known complaint records, carrier prefix risk, repeat callers • IBAN and payments — institution match and manipulation signals together • QR codes — with the camera or from a screenshot in your gallery • Email headers — who actually sent it • Institution verification — for messages claiming to be your bank TOOLS • Password strength meter and a secure generator • Breach check via Have I Been Pwned k-anonymity: only the first five characters of your password's SHA-1 hash leave the device, never the password • Safety habits questionnaire • Protection centre — which step to take, in which order, if you have already been defrauded • Official reporting channels • Blocked number list (you enable it in iOS Settings) PRIVACY • No accounts, no sign-in, no profile • Scanned content stays on the device • History is kept only when you choose to save it, and it is encrypted • The optional community report sends the bare domain and nothing else PREMIUM Premium removes in-app ads. That is all it does — no check is locked behind it, and every feature works fully in the free version. Monthly or yearly, cancel any time. IMPORTANT Scam Finder gives rule-based guidance, not a guarantee. Whatever the result says, call the institution on its official number yourself before sending money or sharing information.
