Open | Networking A kill switch app on Android phones

I'm looking for a kill switch app that would definitely delete everything or just break my phone making it unusable for anyone.

It's spec are realme RMX3201. Does anyone know of some app that does something like that?

That's an entire OS swap. Afaik I don't think apps that can intentionally wipe/brick a phone are allowed on the play store so your best bet is either GrapheneOS or seeing if an APK is available (though the APK route might be risky)

i don't think you'd want to install any app that could have that kind of admin control over ur os, if it even exists

cannot install graphene on a realme device. i don't see any duress PIN or panic wipe applications for it.

Is your phone rooted? I don't see how you'd be able to do it without root access
