Google has announced that, starting in 2026/2027, all apps on certified Android devices will require the developer to submit personal identity details directly to Google. Since the developers of this app do not agree to this requirement, this app will no longer work on certified Android devices after that time. https://keepandroidopen.org/
LibreFind is a free, lightweight, and community-driven Android app designed to help you de-Google your device. It scans your installed packages locally and queries our open-source database to flag proprietary software, instantly pairing them with privacy-respecting FOSS alternatives.
- Local Device Scanner: Audits your installed apps entirely on-device to calculate your personal sovereignty score.
- Global DB Search (Discover): Look up any FOSS or proprietary app directly in our crowdsourced database to plan your next setup.
- Alternative Recommendations: Seamlessly browse community-vetted open-source alternatives tailored to replace mainstream big-tech software.
- The Hub (Community): View, review, and interact with pending app submissions to help maintain the database's integrity.
- Gamified Progression: Earn points for your contributions and unlock community rank badges ( Scout, Pathfinder, Guide, Curator, Vanguard) directly on your profile.
