Welcome to Privatify, the app that helps you discover privacy-focused, open source alternatives to the proprietary apps you use. This README provides an overview of the app's features, installation instructions, how to contribute, and more.

• Scan your device for installed apps and find open source alternatives.

• Privacy-focused: No data collection policy. We will never collect or give any of your personal data away to third-parties, not even anonymously. (GDPR compliant)

• Minimal Third-Party Dependence: In our commitment to user privacy, we minimize reliance on third-party services wherever possible.

• User-first policy: Users have the most influence on which additional features will be added in the app.

• User-friendly interface: Intuitive design for easy navigation.

• No ads for free.

• No central server, everything is run either inside the user's device or within a secure API, ensuring maximum privacy and security.
