CASE FILE
How it works
-
01
Choose the apps
Nothing is recorded until you choose. No app comes selected, and you can remove any of them from the list whenever you want.
-
02
Every notification becomes a proof
Numbered, with date, time and source app, organized by day, like the pages of a case file.
-
03
Look it up when you need it
Search, filters and a stamp on what was deleted. The code that vanished from the status bar is still there.

EXHIBIT
Deleted, but recorded.
If a message is deleted after it arrives, the proof stays in the archive, marked with the “DELETED” stamp and the time the source app removed the notification.
“Deleted” means the source app removed the notification. That includes messages deleted by the sender, but also notifications the app clears by itself, for example when you open the conversation.
Alibi only keeps what arrived as a notification. Messages that never produced a notification, such as those from muted conversations, cannot be recorded.
CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT
The archive is yours. Only yours.
- Everything stays on the device: no account, no server and no usage analytics.
- Notification content is never sent over the internet.
- The app shows ads (Google AdMob) to stay free. Ads have no access to your proofs.
- Biometric or PIN lock and an encrypted database. You choose the apps and can revoke access whenever you want.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
FAQ
Does Alibi send my messages anywhere?
No. Everything stays on the device, in an encrypted database. Alibi has no account and no server, and notification content is never sent over the internet.
What does DELETED mean?
That the source app removed the notification after posting it. It may be a message deleted by the sender, but also a notification the app cleared by itself, for example when you opened the conversation.
Why don’t some conversations show up?
Muted conversations in messaging apps don’t produce notifications, so they are not recorded. To keep them without being disturbed, set that app’s notification to “Silent” in the Android settings.
Why does the app ask for notification access?
That’s how it reads what comes in, and only from the apps you choose. You can revoke access at any time in the Android settings.
Can I export my proofs?
Yes, to JSON, CSV and PDF, plus a password-encrypted backup.
Is the app free?
Yes, with Google AdMob ads. Ads have no access to your proofs.
Nothing is lost. Not even what was deleted.
Free for Android. Everything stays on your device.
