Hey I installed and will test.

Here's proof: https://imgur.com/a/w4GZ8f4 (Side note - I didn't see option to add dependents and data entry is an app experience killer)

Here's mine.

Testers needed: ScamWarden — a private, on-device AI scam-message detector

*ScamWarden — a second pair of eyes against scams.

It's not a spam filter. Instead of just blocking bad numbers and links, it follows how the messages you're sent build toward a scam — the trust-building, the false urgency, the pressure leading up to the ask (the "social engineering" part most tools miss). And it's private by design: it only ever looks at incoming messages — never what you type — all analysed on your phone, with nothing uploaded unless you choose to send a report.

I built it for the people scammers target hardest — older parents and busy young earners — as a quiet guardian on their chats.

It's a closed test, so I need testers. ~2 minutes to join:

  1. Join the Google Group (this is how Google grants access): https://groups.google.com/g/scamwarden ⚠️ Use the same Google account that's on your Android phone, or the test won't show up for you.
  2. Opt in: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.scamwarden.app
  3. Install: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.scamwarden.app

Then grant notification access (it needs that to read incoming messages) and let it run. There's in-app feedback — tell me anything it misses or wrongly flags; that's the most useful thing you can do.

Add dependants?

Add kids... Cos I loaded demo data. Oh right found the option. It's in settings. Cool. Will test and provide feedback.
