Protect your brand and customers from fake, malicious, and impersonating mobile applications.
SnapDragon monitors major app stores to detect and remove fraudulent apps that misuse your brand, mislead users, or pose security risks before they can cause damage.
Fighting counterfeits with a 98% success rate worldwide













Fake and impersonating apps are often cleverly designed to look legitimate, using brand names, logos, and similar visuals to deceive users and exploit trust.
These apps can mislead customers, or worse, steal personal or payment data, damage your brand reputation, and undermine official applications.
Brand assets are used to promote an app with functionalities different from the original rights holders.
Apps designed to steal data, distribute malware, or defraud users.
Use of registered brand assets in app titles, descriptions, or screenshots.
The SnapDragon technology is built to provide comprehensive online protection across geographical and language borders.
Plus, the international team of Brand Protection Experts are fluent in 18 languages, bringing unmatched tenacity to safeguarding your brand across major app stores worldwide, ensuring consistent protection across regions and languages.
SnapDragon’s technology scans apps stores globally identifying everything from subtle variations to direct brand and trademark infringements.
With efficient categorisation of listings, the tech then applies scoring to filter and prioritise.
SnapDragon’s intuitive portal brings all your enforcement actions into one place. Easily track progress with a clear and concise overview of all detected brand infringements segmented by respective statuses in the enforcement workflow – such as “awaiting approval” or “successfully removed” – to track threats detected and enforcement.
SnapDragon’s tech assesses and ranks threats based on severity, reach, and the likely damage to your brand.
Our Brand Protection Team understands app store policies and enforcement procedures, ensuring takedown requests are accurate, compliant, and effective.
The SnapDragon Brand Protection team knows that every brand is unique, facing distinct challenges shaped by it’s journey, products and customers. They also understand app store policies and enforcement procedures, ensuring takedown requests are accurate, compliant, and effective.
Our clients receive dedicated support in assessing and prioritising the highest-risk threats and managing the entire takedown process, from issuance to enforcement.
SnapDragon’s AI-powered software operates continuously, tirelessly searching and gathering data that is then categorised and scored.
The goal is to identify threats as soon as they appear—often within minutes or hours—to minimise financial loss, reputational damage, and customer harm. An “always-on” approach means that brands can respond as fast as counterfeiters evolve.
