Privacy Flip automatically manages your device's privacy features based on screen lock/unlock state. When you lock your device, it can disable Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, mobile data, location services, NFC, and even camera/microphone sensors. When you unlock, it intelligently restores the features you want back on.

Works with Root OR Shizuku - Choose your preferred privilege method!

Features:

• Manage your device privacy based on lock/unlock state
• Dual privilege support: Root OR Shizuku (no root required!)
• Automatic privilege detection (Sui > Root > Shizuku)
• Configurable feature control (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Mobile Data, Location, NFC, Camera, Microphone)
• Customizable timing delays (0-60 seconds granular, 2 minutes, or 5 minutes)
• Background service for persistent monitoring
• Quick Settings tile integration

Privacy Features Controlled:

• Wi-Fi - Disable/enable wireless connectivity
• Bluetooth - Control Bluetooth radio
• Mobile data - Manage cellular data connection
• Location services - Control GPS and location tracking
• NFC - Control NFC sensor
• Camera - Disable/enable camera sensor privacy (Android 12+)
• Microphone - Disable/enable microphone sensor privacy (Android 12+)

Note: Camera and microphone ignore custom delays and trigger immediately (if not in use to avoid interrupting calls), due to Android limitations

Requirements:

• Android 7.0+ (API level 24)
• Android 12+ (API level 31) for camera/microphone features

Choose your privilege method:

Option 1: Shizuku (No root required!)
• Shizuku app installed and running
• ADB privileges via USB or wireless debugging
• Perfect for non-rooted devices

Option 2: Root Access (Recommended for rooted devices)
• Root access via Magisk, SuperSU, or similar
• Best performance with UID 0 privileges

Option 3: Sui (Best of both worlds)
• Rooted device with Magisk
• Sui Magisk module installed
• Best user experience - automatic startup, no prompts

Privacy & Security:

• Zero telemetry - No data sent to external servers
• Local storage only - All settings stored on device
• No network permissions - App cannot access internet
• Open source - https://github.com/dorumrr/privacyFlip

WhatsNew:

- Fixed the Airplane Mode and Battery Saver behaviour
- Added debug logging capability (disabled by default)

While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device.
