Skip Splash Ads on Android
Android-Touch-Helper is an Android helper app that automatically skips splash ads. It is implemented with Android Accessibility Service, which means the app can inspect on-screen content to detect and click skip targets.
Because Accessibility-based tools can potentially access sensitive on-screen information, privacy is the biggest concern for this kind of app.
This project is open source, does not require network permission or storage permission, and does not collect or upload personal data.
The app can skip splash ads in three ways:
- Keyword detection. It looks for buttons containing specific keywords and clicks them automatically.
- Specific UI controls. It can find and click predefined controls for a given app.
- Specific screen positions. It can click a configured screen area for a given app.
Ideas and pull requests are welcome.

Maintenance Note
This started as a personal project several years ago, and I no longer have much time to actively improve or maintain it. New feature requests may be difficult to support.
If you would like to contribute a PR, I will still do my best to review and merge it.
