Phantom.me: mobile privacy

A Google user

I am possessed of a pretty decent vocabulary, but I cannot put into words the ease and efficacy of this app. Absolutely a peasure; privacy and efficiency with quickly achieved results. If there is anything more to be asked of an app, I'm afraid I can't think of it. Many thanks Developers!

it is a great app, doesn't use sms to communicate. I'm giving it only four stars because it's having issues. this last update broke the messaging feature, which was all i used it for. It displays it got a message, and i can confirm that one was sent with the person I'm talking to, but the app doesn't show the message when I open it. i hope they fix this soon.

Perfect, a new method of getting into the app has been implemented! It's not as great as the dialup, but it's still really effective. I have some ideas for new entrances. 1) A disguised notification which you have to double tap (or single tap) it to open Phantom.me 2) Disguised app icon and title 3) Have Phantom.me detect screen strokes. For example, Phantom.me detects if the user "drew" a circle in the center of the screen, and if they did, it would open up the app.

If you press home it auto closes out of the recently opened apps section. It even happens when you turn off your phone. You can only change the settings and access the secret zone when you type in a password that you create. There is also a image censor thing that sets a limit on what can be seen. It doesn't save anything but the secret words (password) and your settings. To access the secret zone you have to serch your password.

Neat app, except for two things: it shuts itself down when you navigate away from it. I realize that this is mostly a desired feature, except for when you want to login to your social media accounts (LinkedIn, etc). Those apps now detect an inconsistent login attempt, and email you a code that you have to enter.... But if you open you email app to get the code, phantom.me closes itself, and the code is invalidated. And you can't split-screen it, b/c this app doesn't suppprt that either.

it is a amazing app and i love everything about it, but the last update has made it to where me and my chat buddys cants talk. we get the notifacation of you got a message, but we cant see what it is. we have all uninstalled and installes the app many time but it is the same thing over and over again. if you could maybe fix it that would be amazing! i dont get to see them often so this would really mean a lot if you could fix it.

The app is a good idea but really needs some changes to shine. The browser is far too basic, you can't even zoom in on web pages... The bookmark management system is lacklustre as you cannot edit the names of bookmarks or change their position. You cannot change from mobile to desktop versions of sites. Lastly there is no option security wise to use a second passcode instead of drawing a pattern. There are more things I could list but there's are the main ones. Please address these issues and I will update my review.

I don't know whether I love or hate this app. Pros: it's a free and ad-free proxy browser (excellent if you live in a country where censorship is a problem); your activity just disappears as soon as you minimize the app, and you can password-protect it; it supports webapps. Cons: Not configurable, no tabs, you should have the option to resume browsing after you minimize and return to the app, a built-in ad blocker supporting adblock compatible filter lists would be excellent.

I've always liked this app, but it would appear that it no longer supports the in app adult entertainment web sites. If this is the case then why is there still a switch for enabling adult content? Or is this only an issue in android 11?

Took me 15 minutes and 3 reinstalls to make it work. I ended up googling their web side where they have an totorial. I am in love with it now. But it took forever to figure out. The "app" you hit first time, only exists untill you enter it the first time. No regrets. It is reinstall if your screen locks or alike. But when the master password is set, you are ready to go. So all ya mad heads. Open the web page, phantom.me and find the totorial. (Wich would be a good idea to have in the description to avoid bad rep from people not able to open the browser)
