Ad-silence is an open-source (GPL-3.0-only) Android app by BluePie. The APK we host is 167 KB, it needs Android 5.0 or newer, and it declares 3 permissions.
The file on this page is Ad-silence v0.8.1-prod, 167 KB, and it installs on Android 5.0 and newer.
We compared the signing certificate of this build with the certificate recorded the first time bluepie.ad_silence entered the site, and published both the file's SHA-256 and the certificate's fingerprint above so you can check the download yourself. That comparison says the file was not repackaged by someone else; it is not a review of what the app does.
The manifest inside the APK declares 3 permissions, none of which cover contacts, location, SMS, the camera or the microphone.
Its licence is GPL-3.0-only. We took this build from F-Droid, and the source for this exact version is linked below.
F-Droid, who build and sign this package, flag it: it depends on software that is not open source. We pass that on as they recorded it — we have not tested the app ourselves.
We do not show a star rating or an install count for this page: we have no measured figure for either, and a number we cannot source is worth less than an empty field.
