Pre-release Test Build πŸ§ͺ

AddressAlarm 🚨

AddressAlarm is an open-source Android app that helps anyone flag and avoid risky, curious or problematic addresses.
It runs 100% on-device, watching for addresses through Accessibility, and alerts you when a location matches your personal "do-not-enter" or "use caution" list.

Test build label: The current pre-release APK installs under the launcher codename 🚨FlagDrive 🚨 You will see this name when granting permissions or enabling the accessibility service. The branding will switch to AddressAlarm in a future build.

Originally designed with gig workers in mind, the tool now serves a much broader purpose β€” useful for law enforcement, social workers, real estate agents, contractors, utility workers, and the general public who want a personal safety layer for navigating locations.


✨ Features

  • On-device matching – No data leaves your phone
  • Custom flags & tags – Dangerous, hostile, unsafe pets, restricted zones, etc.
  • Debounced alerts – No notification spam
  • Per-app visibility – Works only on apps you enable
  • Simple, safety-first UI – Large text, straightforward menus
  • Import/Export – Save and restore your flagged addresses

This is an early alpha build of AddressAlarm for testing purposes. Please report any bugs or feedback in the Issues tab!

What's New:

  • Initial implementation of the on-device address matching.
  • Basic UI for adding and flagging addresses.

Known Issues:

  • Import/Export feature is not yet functional.
  • May have high battery usage (optimizations are planned).

To install:

  1. Download the AddressAlarm_v.0.1.42_alpha.apk` file below.

  2. You may need to enable "Install unknown apps" in your Android settings. See our Installation Guide for help.

  3. 🚨Check out https://github.com/TohnJravolta/AddressAlarm/blob/main/docs/INSTALLATION.md for details on how to FINISH SET-UP as the system requires additional accessibility and notification permissions and options to be enabled in your system for the system to be able to work and detect matches with your database.

Thank you for checking this tool out and I hope it can help you in your day to day :D
