PopStop Tech home screen: start a new work order, catch the exact pop-up apps, customer history

What it does for your shop

Step-by-step work orders

Customer details, a Google account snapshot, junk app removal, cache cleanup and a PDF report to hand the customer.

Removes the real culprits

Finds pop-up ad, fake antivirus and remote-control apps, and backs each one up before it's removed so you can restore it.

Catches the exact pop-up app

With Usage Access on, PopStop sees which app threw a full-screen ad over another app, the clearest sign of adware.

Customer history

Every job is saved on the phone, so you can look back at what you found and fixed for each customer.

How to install

  1. Download
    On the Android phone, tap Download for Android above. If Chrome asks, tap Download anyway.
  2. Allow the install
    Open the downloaded file. If the phone says it can't install apps from this source, tap Settings, turn on Allow from this source, then go back. If Play Protect warns that the app is unrecognized, tap More details › Install anyway. PopStop Tech isn't on Google Play, which is why you see this.
  3. Enter your key
    Open PopStop Tech, go to Settings › PopStop Tech license and type in your trial key. Activation needs internet.

Android only (8.0 and newer). There is no iPhone version.
