I built an Android device-management app called SafeGuard — looking for developer feedback
Hi everyone!
I've been working on a personal Android development project called SafeGuard.
The idea is to bring device management, parental controls, digital wellbeing and authorized remote assistance into one application.
What I've been building
1. Location and device information
GPS location updates
Interactive map visualization
Location history
Battery and device status
2. Screen sharing and remote assistance
Live screen sharing using WebRTC
Supported remote navigation
Remote troubleshooting assistance
3. Camera and audio
Permission-based camera functionality
Live audio communication
Front and rear camera support
Visible camera and microphone indicators
4. Digital wellbeing
Daily screen-time information
Application usage statistics
Installed application inventory
Usage reports
5. Application management
Supported application restrictions
Screen-time limits
Application and permission-change alerts
6. Device notifications
Supported notification visibility
Available call and SMS information
Network connectivity information
Hotspot activity alerts
Emergency device alerts
Technical implementation
Some of the main technologies and concepts involved:
Android development and runtime permissions
Firebase and cloud database configuration
Device authentication and six-digit pairing
WebRTC for real-time communication
Live audio, video and screen sharing
Personalized cloud infrastructure
Privacy and security
Since the application works with sensitive device capabilities, I've been paying particular attention to permissions, authorization, device pairing and transparency.
Camera, microphone, location and screen-related functionality should only be used with appropriate authorization and clear awareness by the connected device user.
What I'd like to learn from the community
What would you improve in this application?
What are the biggest challenges when working with Android permissions?
What security considerations should I prioritize for connected-device applications?
Have you worked with Firebase and WebRTC together?

This is my own project, and I'm sharing it transparently as its developer.
Thanks for reading! I'd appreciate constructive feedback.
