📌 Introduction

Your Android smartphone may seem completely under your control — but is it really?

In many cases, hidden apps or background processes are silently running, consuming your phone’s battery, slowing down performance, or even tracking your activity without your knowledge. These apps often don’t appear in your regular app drawer, making them hard to find and remove.

That’s where Hidden Apps Scanner comes in.

Developed by Stupendous Games, this lightweight yet powerful tool helps users detect and review hidden, suspicious, or unused apps that may be secretly installed on their device. Whether you’re concerned about privacy, want to optimize performance, or simply curious about what’s hiding under the surface — this app is for you.

📱 What is Hidden Apps Scanner?

Hidden Apps Scanner is a free Android application designed to scan, detect, and analyze all apps installed on your phone — including those that are not visible in the standard user interface.

Unlike basic app managers, this tool goes deep. It reads package-level details and uncovers apps that are:

• Hidden from your home screen
• Installed without your permission
• Running silently in the background
• Taking up memory and processing power
• Potentially dangerous or invasive

With just one tap, the app provides full visibility of everything installed on your device.

🌟 Key Features (What Makes It Special?)

🔍 1. Deep Hidden App Detection

Scans the entire phone — internal memory, SD card, and system partitions — to find apps that are not shown in your launcher.

🧠 2. In-Depth App Information

Each app result includes:

• App name and icon
• Package name
• Installation and update date
• Granted permissions
• Background services, activities, and receivers
• RAM and usage stats

This makes it easy to spot unusual or suspicious apps.

📦 3. APK Backup & Sharing

You can extract the APK of any installed app and save it as a backup — or share it with another device. Very handy for reinstalling older versions.

🧰 4. RAM & App Activity Monitoring

It shows how much memory an app uses and tracks when the app was opened or closed. This helps you identify apps running secretly in the background.

⚡ 5. Lightweight & Fast

At just 11MB, the app is highly optimized for speed and performance. It works on Android 5.0+ devices without lag or freezing.

✅ Why Should You Use Hidden Apps Scanner?

Here’s what you get from using this app:

• 🔐 Better Privacy – Identify apps with suspicious permissions or hidden operations
• ⚙️ More Control – Manage all apps, even the ones Android hides
• 🔋 Battery Optimization – Remove background apps that drain your phone
• 🗂️ Organized Storage – Clean up unused or invisible apps
• 📤 Easy App Backup – Save important APKs before updates or uninstallations

Whether you’re a tech-savvy user or a casual Android owner, this app provides real value with minimal effort.

⚠️ Possible Drawbacks

Even though the app is extremely useful, it’s good to know its limitations:

• 📺 Ads on Launch – A short ad appears when you open the app, as it’s free
• ❌ No Direct Uninstall Button – You must go to system settings to remove apps
• 🔍 Not a Malware Scanner – It doesn’t scan for viruses; you must analyze the apps manually
• 🔐 Broad Permissions Needed – Especially on Android 11+, it requires the “Query All Packages” permission to function fully

These are not deal-breakers but worth being aware of.
