  • The hardest part would be how to trigger the kill-switch periodically without showing it to your adversary whilst keeping it easy. Having your device queried directly would be a dead giveaway. My idea without involving people would be as follows:

    1. Set up a program that syncs files to a remote third-party cloud
    2. Sync it to a directory that frequently changes when you use your device (your docs, for example)
    3. Have a server that queries the third-party drive for that synchronised directory
    4. If there are no changes, trigget the alarm

    But since this plan relies on the secrecy, it’s kind of ruined now. That, and I think your threat model is a bit too extreme.








  • MiXplorer: Tabbed file explorer with many features. You can get it for free from their website, but it’s available paid on Google Play.

    Symfonium: Music player compatible with many backends, such as local storage, WebDAV, Subsonic (which includes Ampache, Navidrome)

    aCalendar+: Calendar app with many widgets. Best part is the persistent notification, which shows what’s happening today, and will happen tomorrow.

    Cryptomator: Cross-platform file encryption program, also open source.
