The Problem

Your phone has secrets.

Most of what your iPhone shares about you is switched on by default, buried five menus deep. These aren't hypotheticals. They're real findings Patriot Shield checks for.

Your iPhone keeps a diary of everywhere you go

A running history of the places you visit most, with dates and times often accurate to the building. On by default.

Your emails report back when you read them

How It Works

From invisible to in control in three steps.

01

Scan

One tap checks 10 categories of your device posture: passcode, location, tracking, microphone, camera, and more. Everything runs locally on your phone.

02

Get your Privacy Score

A single 1–100 number tells you exactly where you stand, from Fortress to Critical. No jargon, no guesswork, just a score and what it means.

Fortress 90–100 Guarded 70–89 Exposed 50–69 Critical <50
03

Fix it, step by step

Every finding comes with a plain-English explanation and numbered steps that take you straight into Settings. Watch your score climb as you go.

Guided fixes with Settings shortcuts are part of Patriot Shield Pro. The scan, your score, and every finding are always free.

The 30-Second Scan

Ten checks. Zero data leaves your phone.

Tap once and Patriot Shield audits your device's privacy posture across ten categories, from your passcode to app tracking permissions. All scans run locally on your device; nothing is ever sent to a server.

  • Passcode & Face ID
  • Device integrity
  • Location services
  • App tracking
  • Microphone & camera
  • iOS version
The Reveal

See what your apps have actually been doing.

Your iPhone already keeps a private 7-day log of every microphone, camera, and location access, called Apple's App Privacy Report. It's just switched off by default and nearly impossible to read. Patriot Shield helps you turn it on, then translates it into plain English: which apps used your mic, which contacted known trackers, and what to do about it.

The honest way to do this. No app can watch other apps in real time. iOS forbids it, and anyone claiming otherwise is guessing. Patriot Shield reads your phone's own recorded log. Real access, real timestamps, nothing simulated.

Guided Fixes

Know exactly what to fix, and how much it's worth.

No security jargon, no wall of warnings. A prioritized checklist labeled by how we know it: checked on your device, probably affects you, or let's look together. Each one is worth real points toward your score.

  • Plain-English findings

    Every issue is explained in words your family would understand: what it is, what it exposes, and who should care.

  • Every fix earns points

    Each finding shows exactly how many points it adds to your Privacy Score, so you always know what to tackle first.

  • Stays on watch

    Pro re-scans your device in the background on your schedule and alerts you when your Privacy Score drops.

Questions, Answered

Everything people ask before their first scan.

How do I see what apps access my microphone on iPhone?

Your iPhone keeps a private 7-day log called the App Privacy Report (Settings → Privacy & Security → App Privacy Report). Patriot Shield imports that log and translates it into plain English, showing exactly which apps used your microphone, camera, and location, and which apps contacted known trackers.

What is the App Privacy Report on iPhone?

The App Privacy Report is a built-in iOS feature that records which apps access your microphone, camera, location, photos, and contacts, plus which domains they contact. It's switched off by default. Patriot Shield walks you through turning it on, then reads the report for you on your device.

Is Patriot Shield free?

Yes. The privacy scan, your 1–100 Privacy Score, every finding, and your score history are free. No account needed. Patriot Shield Pro ($6.99/month or $49.99/year) unlocks step-by-step fixes, full App Privacy Report analysis, automatic background re-scans, and alerts when your score drops.

Does Patriot Shield send my data anywhere?

No. Patriot Shield collects nothing. Zero. There are no servers that receive your data, no analytics platforms, and no tracking SDKs. Every scan runs entirely on your device, and your results never leave your phone. The only third party is Apple, which processes Pro subscriptions.

What is a Privacy Score?

Your Privacy Score is a 1–100 rating of your iPhone's privacy posture, calculated on your device from real checks: passcode settings, tracking permissions, iOS version, and more. Scores fall into four tiers: Fortress (90+), Guarded (70+), Exposed (50+), and Critical (below 50). Fixing findings raises your score.

Can an app tell me if another app is listening right now?

No, and be wary of any app that claims it can. iOS sandboxing prevents apps from watching each other in real time. What your iPhone does keep is a private 7-day access log. Patriot Shield reads that log, honestly: real recorded access, not simulated alarms.

How do I cancel Patriot Shield Pro?

Subscriptions are handled entirely by Apple. Open Settings on your iPhone, tap your name, tap Subscriptions, choose Patriot Shield, and tap Cancel. Your subscription renews automatically until cancelled, and you keep Pro access until the end of the paid period. No refunds for partial periods, per App Store policy.
