      <description>&lt;p&gt;**&lt;em&gt;**An open-source Android parental control and digital wellbeing app powered by Local AI (.tflite).&lt;/em&gt;* &lt;br&gt;
Detects and blocks explicit content in real-time—even in local offline videos—and prevents unauthorized uninstallation.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;👉 &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="https://github.com/ahsanpcin/Sheild-Lenz/releases" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;Download Latest APK &amp;amp; AI Model (.tflite) from GitHub Releases&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  ✨ Key Features
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;🤖 Real-Time Offline AI Detection:&lt;/strong&gt; Instantly scans and blocks inappropriate content on screen, including locally saved videos, using local &lt;code&gt;.tflite&lt;/code&gt; models without needing an internet connection.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;🔒 Guardian PIN &amp;amp; Anti-Uninstall:&lt;/strong&gt; Cannot be uninstalled or force-stopped without entering the Guardian Security PIN.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;⏳ Strict Temporary Device Lock:&lt;/strong&gt; Automatically shields the screen and locks the device if restricted content is triggered.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;🛡️ Post-Lock Password Security:&lt;/strong&gt; Even after the lock timer ends, the device remains protected until the Guardian PIN is entered.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;🔐 100% Private (Zero Cloud Leakage):&lt;/strong&gt; All AI processing happens locally on your phone. No screen data or personal info is ever sent to any server.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/div&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  ⚙️ How to Install &amp;amp; Setup
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Download both the &lt;code&gt;.apk&lt;/code&gt; file and the &lt;code&gt;.tflite&lt;/code&gt; AI model file from &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="https://github.com/ahsanpcin/Sheild-Lenz/releases" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;GitHub Releases&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Open the APK on your Android device and allow &lt;strong&gt;Install from Unknown Sources&lt;/strong&gt; if prompted.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Open &lt;strong&gt;Sheildlenz&lt;/strong&gt; and set up your &lt;strong&gt;Guardian Security PIN&lt;/strong&gt; (make sure to save a backup).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Load the downloaded &lt;code&gt;.tflite&lt;/code&gt; model file inside the app settings and select your &lt;strong&gt;Detection Sensitivity&lt;/strong&gt; (Strict, Balanced, or Permissive).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Grant &lt;strong&gt;Device Administrator&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;Accessibility Service&lt;/strong&gt; permissions so the anti-uninstall and screen-shield features work properly.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  ⚠️ Important Warning
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Please remember your &lt;strong&gt;Guardian Security PIN&lt;/strong&gt;. Because this app uses strict Device Administrator locks to prevent bypassing, forgetting your PIN may lock you out of your device.&lt;/p&gt;
