Looking for an alternative
Guardsquare DexGuard alternative
If you're evaluating a Guardsquare DexGuard alternative for Android, Appsolid is worth a look. Here's what differs — and, honestly, where Guardsquare DexGuard is still the better call.
Built for Android: Purpose-built for Android — focused on DEX packing and native protection.
Why teams consider Appsolid
Integration
Post-build — upload a finished APK/AAB; no SDK, no source changes.
Hooking countermeasure
Key entanglement — detection is bound into the decryption key, so under hooking the original code never decrypts (no branch to patch).
Pricing
Flat per-app pricing — does not scale with users/devices/MAU; publicly listed.
Published validation
Published validation: 102 devices, 1,800+ runs, 7-threat e2e, red-team ceiling.
Note: The competitor notes below summarize publicly available material (product pages and docs) as of June 2026; undisclosed features may be missing. Specifications change often — verify the latest details with each vendor's official sources. For uncertain items we avoid attributing anything inaccurate to competitors and state only Appsolid's own position precisely.
When Guardsquare DexGuard fits better
- Enterprise-scale threat intel / SIEM integration is a hard requirement.
- SIEM/SOAR, geo/session correlation and global threat intel (on Appsolid's roadmap).
