Full description
Snaphook is a community-powered mobile security app that protects Filipinos from rogue cell towers (IMSI catchers) and SMS phishing attacks. WHAT IS AN IMSI CATCHER? Rogue cell towers — also called IMSI catchers or Stingrays — are devices that impersonate legitimate cell towers to intercept calls, SMS, and data. They are portable, invisible, and already in use in the Philippines. WHAT SNAPHOOK DOES: - Continuously monitors nearby cell towers and flags suspicious ones - Detects towers with no identity, unknown towers not in our database, and abnormally strong signals - Scans incoming SMS for phishing patterns, lookalike domains, and known scam templates - Builds a crowd-sourced hotzone map of dangerous areas across the Philippines - Runs silently in the background — no action needed from you THREAT LEVELS: - SAFE — no suspicious towers detected - WARNING — suspicious tower nearby but weaker than legitimate towers - DANGER — suspicious tower with stronger signal, may attract your connection - COMPROMISED — your phone may be connected to a rogue tower PRIVACY FIRST: - SMS scanning happens entirely on your device — message content never leaves your phone - Tower reports are anonymized before submission - No personal information stored or transmitted - You can opt out of SMS scanning at any time COMMUNITY POWERED: Every detection contributes anonymously to a growing map of threat zones across the Philippines. The more users, the more accurate the protection. Minimum Android version: 8.0 (API 26)
