Description

Show full descriptionShow less

The free Netcraft app protects you from phishing and web-based malware attacks on your mobile device. The app will block all known attacks whilst you browse the web.

Although major desktop web browsers have effective anti-phishing protection, the same is not true of mobile equivalents. The Netcraft app allows you to benefit from phishing protection on your mobile device, taking advantage of Netcraft's constantly updated phishing site feed. Over 177 million phishing sites have been detected and blocked by our community to date [June 2023].

Features:

✔ Block phishing and web-based malware attacks whilst browsing the web
✔ Report phishing attacks to help protect others and climb the Netcraft leaderboard
✔ View your block history and stats to see how Netcraft has protected you

Supported apps:

The Netcraft app protects you in popular browsers and applications, and our free trial lets you confirm that all your favourite apps are supported.

Permissions

In order to protect you, the Netcraft app requires the following permissions:
• Accessibility service: to check for malicious URLs whilst you browse the web, and to block phishing sites

Device encryption

When you enable Netcraft's protection, your device may disable device encryption. This applies to all applications which use accessibility services. If you use device encryption, simply ensure it is re-enabled after enabling protection in the Netcraft app.
