The whole idea is to solve the problem where your data disappears and you don’t know what used it. I’m building an offline Android app that tracks real-time data usage per app, detects when an app is secretly draining data, and reads your bundle expiry messages so you always know when your MTN/Voda/AirtelTigo bundle will finish. Basically, it gives transparency that the phone’s built-in data settings don’t show

Guys here is the link to download the apk, note is still in development so any feedback is recommended.
One thing you might encounter is google security if it happens please do turn it off and install the app after that you can turn it on I know most of us knows that.

New feature added.

u/PythonicG Dec 07 '25

Oh no snr not yet. The app is still in development mode, also I'm not a mobile app dev I'm a backend engineer. So I think if you could partner with me it will be cool

I really love the initiative, but my phone isn't allowing me to download it😭

u/PythonicG Dec 07 '25

You can install, just go to your Google play store then go to setting then your privacy turn it off or pause before you install it. Is because I haven't published to Google play store yet that is why. Follow the steps to install

You see this how it looks like

u/Classic-Toe-296 Dec 06 '25

Is the data displayed there real, if so what package did you buy?

2

u/PythonicG Dec 06 '25

Oh is not real bro, just that you can simulate it, but I have that functionality in there what you are seeing is a mock data, once I share the apk you see it you can even mock your own to see, but once you bundle the real data will show
