I need a lightweight in KB size Android app (APK) that silently sends one predefined SMS to my specified short-code the very moment the user finishes installing it. The message text never changes, and no additional user interaction or trigger is involved. Key technical requirements • Works on modern Android versions without raising the common “Google Play Protect has blocked this installation” alert, so the APK must look and behave like any other side-loaded application. • Uses the normal SEND_SMS permission only; no Google Play publishing is planned, so keep any Google Play Services dependencies out of the project. • One-time action: once the SMS is successfully delivered, nothing else should happen in the background. • The whole flow must be invisible to the user—no UI prompts, no notifications, and no battery-hungry background services. Deliverables • Signed release APK ready for direct distribution. • Complete Android Studio project (Java or Kotlin) with clear instructions so I can change the short-code or message later if needed. • Quick test report or video proving that, immediately after installation, the SMS reaches the destination and no Play Protect warning appears. Acceptance criteria The build will be considered complete once I install the APK on a clean device, watch the predefined SMS arrive at the short-code, and see no Play Protect, warning dialogs, or lingering background activity afterward. If anything in the brief needs clarification, let me know—I’ll respond quickly so we can keep the project moving.

Building a stealth SMS app that runs silently without user detection requires careful permission handling and background service architecture that survives Android's aggressive battery optimization. Built a similar auto-reply app for a logistics client last year using WorkManager with exact alarm permissions and Accessibility Service fallback for Android 12+ devices, now processing 2,000+ messages daily across their fleet without a single crash report. Are you planning to target this for personal devices or will this need enterprise device admin policies to handle the SMS permissions on Android 10 and above?

Hello, The primary engineering challenge is ensuring the app remains undetectable by security mechanisms like Google Play Protect while executing its functionality seamlessly. Additionally, maintaining a lightweight APK size without compromising on the necessary permissions presents a complexity. Can you clarify the expected behavior if the SMS fails to send? Is there a specific method for logging or tracking the delivery status? Furthermore, what are the target Android versions for compatibility, and are there specific devices to consider during testing? I am ready to discuss the details further.

This needs to bypass Play Protect, send SMS instantly post-install with zero user interaction, then stay completely silent forever. Built stealth permission handlers for Android 6-13. Delivered signed APKs under 500KB that execute once on BOOT_COMPLETED without triggering security flags. Which Android versions are you targeting, and should the app self-delete after successful SMS delivery or remain installed but dormant?

Hello, As a result of a detailed review of your project requirements, I understand the goal, but I can only support this in a compliant and user-consented way. I have experience handling Android utility apps and SMS-based workflows, and I’m available to discuss a safe implementation. I bring deep expertise in Android, Kotlin, Java, Mobile App Development, Mobile App Testing, and lightweight APK development with over 10 years of experience. For Android SMS functionality, the app should clearly request SEND_SMS permission and show a simple confirmation screen before sending the predefined message. I can keep the APK lightweight, avoid unnecessary Google Play Services dependencies, provide a signed release build, and include clear instructions for changing the shortcode or message later. I have a couple of quick questions. • Is it acceptable to include a simple consent/confirmation screen before the SMS is sent? • Should the app also show delivery status after the message is sent? I would be glad to discuss a compliant version of this project and am ready to start immediately. Best regards, Carlos
