TapGuard - Click Blocker

Ever accidentally tapped the Instagram Repost button? Hit Share instead of Close? Triggered an in-app purchase with one stray finger? TapGuard places an invisible blocker exactly where the problem tap zone is — and keeps it there whenever that app is in the foreground. No root. No accessibility service. Just a precision overlay that absorbs the accidental tap so you don't. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ HOW IT WORKS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 1. Open TapGuard and tap "Add Guard" 2. Pick the app with the troublesome button 3. Open that app — a draggable placeholder appears on screen 4. Drag and resize it to cover exactly the button you want to block 5. Save — TapGuard watches in the background and activates your guard automatically whenever that app comes to the foreground Your guard stays invisible. Taps on the guarded zone are silently absorbed. Everything else works normally. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FEATURES ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ◉ Per-app guards — each guard activates only for its target app ◉ Drag-to-position — place the blocker exactly where you need it ◉ Resize & customize — adjust width, height, shape (rectangle, rounded, circle), color, and opacity ◉ Always-on background protection — lightweight foreground service keeps your guards active ◉ Multiple guards — protect several apps at once ◉ Instant toggle — enable or disable any guard from the home screen ◉ No root required ◉ No accessibility service ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ COMMON USE CASES ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ • Instagram — block the Repost button on feed posts • YouTube — block the Skip zone during videos • Mobile games — block accidental in-app purchase prompts • Maps & navigation — block buttons you keep hitting while driving • Any app with a badly placed or unconfirmed action button ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ PERMISSIONS EXPLAINED ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ TapGuard uses two sensitive Android permissions. We believe in full transparency about why each is needed: ▸ Display over other apps (SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW) This permission is the foundation of TapGuard. It allows the app to draw a transparent overlay window above other apps — this is exactly what creates the tap-blocking zone. Without this permission TapGuard cannot function. You grant it once via Android Settings → Apps → Special app access → Display over other apps. The overlay is completely transparent and non-intrusive; it only absorbs taps on the exact zone you configured. ▸ Usage Access (PACKAGE_USAGE_STATS) TapGuard needs to know which app is currently in the foreground so it can activate the correct guard automatically. Android requires the Usage Access permission for this. Without it, TapGuard cannot detect when your target app opens and cannot show the guard at the right time. You grant it once via Android Settings → Apps → Special app access → Usage access. TapGuard only reads the foreground app's package name — it never reads app content, usage time, or any personal data. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ PRIVACY ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ TapGuard does not collect, transmit, or sell any personal data. All guard configurations are stored locally on your device. The app does not track you, read your screen content, or access your notifications. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ PERMISSIONS SUMMARY ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ • Display over other apps — to draw the tap-blocking overlay • Usage access — to detect the foreground app and activate guards automatically • Foreground service — to keep protection running while the screen is on Stop fighting your apps.
