AppBugs Security Scan

Now you can download apps confidently. Good job. Keep it up.

Found security flaws in two apps right off the get go! Many thanks.

Tries to read my contracts.. FU

Junk

The app runs efficiently and cleanly. It's transparent in the information it gathers.

It works like a charm

You dont even have to scan your phone you can just look the app up first and then download it

No longer tells you why the apps have security flaws, now need to pay a monthly fee for that.

Lists apps w claimed risks, then price of $10 per year on how you can fix

I like this app uses very few system resources and collects only two pieces of data that are needed to function.

Same business model as several antivirus programs. Uninstalled, good luck to you.

You have to pay to know anything about the security issues after the latest update. I'll pass. Details should be free, charge for stuff beyond that if you must. (change made server side, old versions do the same thing) Previously: "bad" apps installed on my phone and tablet now have parity. Impressed with responsive support

Not posting to debate the merits of this business model but to let others know what they're in for. I'm a good capitalist, but $1/mo or $10/yr seems a bit steep for a single purpose app. Of the 381 user apps I have installed, the free scan found 1 potentially problematic app. Grateful for that, but can't justify a subscription. Best to the dev's, though.

Pretty nice app! How could I not find it earlier?? Best one in the free app category.

gd function.......

Fixed bugs

I tried several times to send feedback through the app and not once did it go through. The bug descriptions are shown in quite poorly contrasting colors (very light gray on white background), making them difficult to read. Your feedback form asks for a name, but only allows one letter to be entered at a time ("swype" disabled). I've only used the app for a couple minutes, so who knows what other stumbling blocks are waiting to be found.

It seems to be a pretty good app.( For being a beta version.)

This product is a great idea, and will hopefully encourage app developers to improve the security of their products. It seems to work well on my device.

Appbugs app is very good to identify bugs

Just ran a scan and color notebook app was flagged. Deleted as the app as a precaution. However I am still interested to know if the other apps are safe just because it did not on a database or is the app being tested in some way.

This app used to crash on my phone, but now it works. Kudos to the developers for their responsiveness! Simple to use, too.

But Google Play Store isn't letting me update the app, among others, as the download speeds are excruciatingly slow. Nothing wrong with my internet as I can install random apps at maximum speed. I'll just uninstall it and try again some other time. Thanks

Ran fine on my Note 4 and found a couple of offending apps. Unfortunately it crashes on my Tab Note 10.1 16 Gig. I'm looking forward to using it on my tablet once a patch is found. Thanks for the app! ********************* Update June 26th: latest patch fixed crashing issue. Well done, Rui.

Interface looks like it is from a dodgy internet site. Technical details are sparse on bugs, making it hard to judge the severity for myself.

...the last version, and it's working fine! Thanks to developers :)

"bad" apps installed on my phone and tablet now have parity. Impressed with responsive support.

Previous crash on scan has been resolved with latest update, kudos to the devs for both their initial feedback and speedy fix.

This app is so easy to use it is a no-brainer. Read a news blub that this app had found vulnerabilities in many common apps. Fortunately for me it showed 100% secure.

I was curious to see which of the apps pending updates on an ancient version of android had security defects. To my surprise, scanning took <10 seconds and found no issues. Maybe good. Also was surprised that the app is also a game, where users get 'gold coins' for clicking on found defects. No mention of this in play store, but the about page has instructions for the game. Interesting.

That's good, right? :-)

Not sure whether this is actually scanning, or just comparing installed apps with a database of known vulnerable apps. With the speed of completion and what's said in the description, I think this is querying a database and comparing - In which case reporting : "No critical bugs found" is very misleading! It should say "No matches found" - I could have 10 dodgy apps which haven't been tested yet! There's no list of current vulnerable apps either.

Crashes immediately. Samsung SII running Android 4.1.2

Great app idea! I love shaming bad developers in to fixing their apps.

Yeah 100% no bugs for me

Works fine on a Nexus 7

I am sure this is likely a great app, but it crashes on my phone as soon as you hit the scan button - the message is: "Unfortunately, AppBugs has stopped" - my phone is an LG Optimus G (E970) and I am running on Android Jellybean version 4.1.2 (kernel version 3.4.51) on AT&T in USA - I have 200 other apps running just fine, so I don't think it is a phone issue. All requested app permissions were granted.

Curious.. I use my own homebrew encryption functions for authentication over http socket to my server and I wasn't detected by this.. that's a good thing but makes me wonder how you are detecting authentication while bypassing unencrypted normal traffic which I also use.. does this only check if the developer is using well-known third party apis for authentication? Anyway well done, was half expecting a false positive to goad me into using an api or standard that I don't really trust..
