AdCheckMe

Make sense of the ads you see. AdCheckMe is an advertising education app with short lessons, interactive examples, and a personal observation journal. Learn about contextual advertising, personalization, retargeting, approximate location, privacy choices, and the limits of what an ad can tell you. EIGHT SHORT LESSONS Read practical explanations, explore fictional scenarios, and check your understanding with a short quiz. The bundled lessons work offline. Links to further reading are included when you want to explore the sources. LOOK AT THE EVIDENCE An ad can match your interests or surroundings for several reasons. AdCheckMe separates visible details, possible explanations, and information the advertiser has not disclosed. Fictional examples are clearly labeled. KEEP YOUR OWN JOURNAL Write down an ad topic, where you saw it, how relevant it felt, and your notes. Edit your observations, revisit them, or export your journal as CSV or JSON. Your entries are stored on your device; AdCheckMe does not upload them as advertising inputs. There is no account or journal sync. Copies you choose to export are under your control. OPTIONAL ADVERTISING AdCheckMe includes an optional Google AdMob placement alongside learning content. Availability depends on your privacy choices and advertising inventory. Lessons and journaling remain available when ads are off or unavailable. You can manage your choices in the app, review provider privacy options where available, and report concerns. AdCheckMe cannot inspect advertising in other apps or reveal an advertiser's undisclosed targeting criteria. Observations of ads seen elsewhere are entered manually by you. AdCheckMe is intended for adults aged 18 and over in the United States. Privacy: https://www.adcheck.me/mobile/privacy Support: https://www.adcheck.me/mobile/support
