Description
Privacy Cell is a small app that displays the cell phone protocol information.
At the time of this writing, many cell phone networks are switching from 4G (4th Generation) to 5G networks. The 5G network protocols were specifically designed to protect against some of the known insecurities of the older protocols, including those that allowed stingrays (IMSI catchers) to perform man-in-the-middle attacks on cell phone networks. To ease deployment and backwards compatibility, 4G and 5G networks can run together in what is known as 5G NR (New Radio) NSA (Non-Standalone) mode. This uses the 4G network for the control channel and the 5G network for the data communication. However, 5G NSA does not provide protection against stingrays. Android has access to all the information it needs to know if it is connected to a 5G NSA or a 5G SA (Standalone) network, but it doesn’t display that information to the user. The purpose of Privacy Cell is to make that information easy to access.
Privacy Cell can also warn you when you are connected to antiquated 2G and 3G networks.

I've been hounded by an organized crime syndicate that uses imsi catcher tech. My business startup failed and stolen because they were able to intercept all my email and phone communication and hack my business files. Now my phone is being warned whenever it downgrades to 2G/3G which is indicative of hack and interception. Amazing app! Thank you! Can't get it to install on my other phone though (Realme 5i). It just says" This app won't work on your device" which I think is odd.

My connection isn't secure 4G LTE... Another app confirmed this with more information. My cell phone provider says this app is a scam. I think it's not.

Not sure if this app tells true information I send my phone to a repair shop, and they say my phone is encrypted and secure but your app say my data is not secure I believe this is another prank scam app.
