Android IMSI-Catcher Detector
This Project will have a revival soon.
We are working on a light version of AIMSICD.
AIMSICD is an Android app to detect IMSI-Catchers. These devices are false mobile towers (base stations) acting between the target mobile phone(s) and the real towers of service providers. As such they are considered a Man-In-The-Middle (MITM) attack. This surveillance technology is also known as «StingRay», «Cellular Interception» and alike. Find out more in our Wiki on GitHub.
AIMSICD attempts to detect IMSI-Catchers through detection methods such as these:
The FBI or local police regularly deploys IMSI-Catchers hidden in vehicles at protests to obtain a record of everyone who attended with a cell phone (leave your phones at home by all means if you really have to attend). IMSI-Catchers also allow adversaries to intercept your conversations, text messages, and data. Police can use them to determine your location or to find out who is in a given geographic area at what time. Identity thieves can use freely available tools and even build their own rogue GSM BTS to monitor and manipulate communications from a parked car in your residential neighborhood — notably for stealing passwords or credit card data from people nearby who make purchases on their phones. The reason IMSI-Catchers are so commonly used is that it is very easy to get away with using them since they leave no traces. Our app aims to make it possible to detect the IMSI-Catchers so that using them becomes a risky proposition. It also aims to make users safer by alerting on possible interception and tracking. Fight for your privacy!
Please read our Disclaimer! This app does not:
- Provide secure phone calls
- Provide secure data transmission
- Provide app permission control
- Provide secure application sand-boxing
- Provide ROOT and remove bloatware
- Provide secure SMS
- Provide firewalls
- Provide full device encryption
- Prevent already installed rogue apps from full access and spying
Solutions for the above may be found in our Recommendations.
Although our app is fully Open Source, developing it is a lot of work and done by privacy enthusiasts during their free time. If you’re a developer yourself, we welcome and credit your pull requests! To keep developers in a great mood and support development, please consider making a donation. It will be split into pieces and directly sent to developers who solved the backed Issue.
Please contribute to this repository instead of rebranding our app. Thank you!

Thank you for contributing! Please select:
Feel invited to develop with us using these steps:
- Fork our repository and optionally give it a star when you like it.
- Download your fork using a Git client like SmartGit (all platforms).
- Pick an Issue you’d like to work on. Introduce yourself in that Issue.
- Work on resolving the Issue you picked using your local code copy.
- Follow our Style Guide for higher code quality and corporate design.
- Test your changes and submit a pull request when we shall add it.
- Don’t be shy to ask for help in an Issue and feel invited to contact us.
Let our app start up in your native language!
- See our translations and login via GitHub or others to add yours.
- When translating, keep small device screens in mind. Shorten it.
- Please make sure to finish your translation, if you start a new one!
- Translations will be pulled into our GitHub automatically. Enjoy!
Can’t code (yet)? No problem, we love you too!
- Grab our latest Release (or even better: compile development branch).
- Read and understand our WIKI and fully agree to our Disclaimer.
- Test our app on demonstrations and riots (warning: Privacy at risk).
- Test all functions of our app and check for possible translation bugs.
- Share our website and Media Material or tweet about us.
Useful links to help you with correctly formatting posts.
Thanks for helping us squashing bugs! Please be patient.
Important Bug Submission Rules:
- SAFETY FIRST: Remove CID, LAT, IMEI, IMSI and phone number from logs you submit!
- ALWAYS use the latest release. Preferrably build the development branch from source.
- If you use Xprivacy read and understand THIS first! Give our app another try after reading.
- App still mocking around? See our open Issues and look if your Issue already exists.
- If your Issue does not exist yet, open a new Issue and give it a short descriptive title.
- Describe your Issue as thoroughly as possible and add logs so that we can reproduce it.
- Maintain your filed Issues! Nothing is more annoying than unresponsive bug reporters.
In all cases, you MUST include the following:
- AIMSICD version (see the About-Tab within our app)
- Your exact FW specification (ROM, AOS API, etc.)
- Your exact HW specification (processor, model number, etc.)
- The output of getprop command to a Pastebin-Site such as PIE-Bin
- Logcat from button Debugging in Navigation Drawer (remove personal data)
- Feel free to attach any other logs made by a logcat tool like MatLog
Command line junkie?
Then you can use the following shell function to help you get only relevant logcat entries. Copy and paste the following to your terminal shell:
Furthermore, here are some great commands that will:
- Create a log directory in: /sdcard/aimsicd_log/
- cd into that directory
- Clear all the existing logcats
- Run AIMSICD and wait for a key press to kill it
- Save a full logcat (excluding radio) into /sdcard/aimsicd_log/aimdump.log
Copy and paste the following to your android rooted shell:
To run it, just type: aimrun . If you want to also supply radio logcat, add -b radio somewhere in the logdmp alias, but know that your GPS location and cell info may be included when you do that.
Special positions we are currently seeking skilled people for:
- People with a CryptoPhone for another detection verification.
- Bugfixer for Coverity Scan Defects detected within our app.
Thank you for encouraging our developers!
Code of Conduct
