This seems to be the app: https://www.sancharsaathi.gov.in/

Looks like it's quire popular/established already, with over 10 million downloads. Basically a "portal" for basic digital safety/hygiene related services.

Quoting Perplexity regarding what facilities the app offers:

1. Chakshu: Report suspicious calls, SMS, or WhatsApp for scams like impersonation, fake investments, or KYC frauds.

2. Block Lost/Stolen Phones: Trace and block devices across all telecom networks using IMEI; track if reactivated.

3. Check Connections in Your Name: View and disconnect unauthorized numbers linked to your ID.

4. Verify Device Genuineness: Confirm if a phone (new or used) is authentic before purchase.

Oh thats why india scams the rest of the world, we just dont have their apps to report it properly

How does an app inspect other app's storage data (like whatsapp). I thought Android security model blocked that. Does it have root access?
