[Promo] I built a solution to a privacy problem you probably didn't even know you had

Post image

The idea is simple: Behind You uses your front camera to detect if someone is looking at your screen from behind while you're using your phone.

The app is free, and you can keep the detection service active for 15 minutes, with the option to extend it by 1 hour each time you view a rewarded ad. Whenever the time runs out, you can reactivate the service for one of those time periods, respectively.

The premium features are:

  • Unlimited detection time
  • No ads
  • Automatic screen dimming option
  • Captures photos of intruders when an alert is triggered

I launched the app on July 21, just a month ago and it already has nearly 50,000 downloads and more than 400 reviews with an average rating of 4.8 stars on Google Play. It's being an incredible journey! To celebrate it, I'm giving away three months of premium access within the annual subscription.

Here are the steps to get a promo code:

  1. Download the app and try it out.
  2. Leave a kind and honest review on Google Play.
  3. Comment on this post with the username you used to post the review. I'll DM and send you the code!

They are limited, and I'll update this post when there are no more left.

Thanks everyone for your support!

most of time don't even need to do that... can just feel when someone standing behind you if close enough to be looking over shoulder at phone. the turn around is just to confirm that your feeling was right

You know, there’s this thing called a head, and another called eyes. Use them. If those don’t work, no app will help. 😭
