I created #UntrackMe a long time ago, and a few months ago I updated it.
Since Android 12, an app can’t open links from domains it doesn’t own, like YouTube or Twitter. So UntrackMe now acts as a browser. You set it as your default browser, it receives all links, removes trackers or redirects them to alternative front-ends, then sends them to your real browser or apps.

Only available on #FDroid f-droid.org/packages/…

Would you like me to keep working on this project?

• Yes, it’s useful
• No, I won’t use it

If you have an app that relies on alternative frontends such as #Invidious, #Nitter and others, it’s often hard to maintain a list of instances. I had that problem with #UntrackMe and #CastLab, so a CI job now runs every day to maintain a list of available instances.

I might add support for this to #Fedilab.

So Google refuses to delete my dev account because they suspended #UntrackMe, an app that redirects Big Tech content to alternative privacy front-ends. Seriously?
Their advice: fix the “compliance issues” first. So I guess my only option left is to rename it TrackMe and have it redirect privacy front-ends back to Big Tech instead. That should fix it.

F* Google!

Screenshot of an email from Google Play Developer Support, showing the paragraph that recommends fixing app compliance issues first, then finding another developer to transfer the app to before the account can be closed.
