The measured vectors - battery, storage and data plan - were normalized by calculating the percentile based on the median values of the apps, measured from when the app was installed, whether used or not. Battery Drain Storage Consumption Data Plan We ranked the apps’ battery We ranked the apps’ storage We ranked the apps’ network Based on our experience with consumer consumption average based consumption average based on traffic consumption average preferences, AVG weighted each of the three on real usage data. We ignored real usage data by measuring the based on real usage data. We vectors slightly differently when calculating applications that have less than size of not just the app itself but only took into account cellular the overall performance score for an app. 1 million downloads according also the additional data (e.g. transmitted data, ignoring the The calculation was therefore: to Google Play.

Data collected in the US, UK and Australia was statistically significant enough to be able to produce specific tables and insights for those markets. These can be viewed in the appendix. Note that our own AVG AntiVirus & AVG Cleaner for Android apps have been excluded because the data for this report is collected anonymously from Measurement was carried out as follows: these two apps, which would automatically have put them in first place as most installed.

  • Living Without Google on Android
    Alternative for Google Apps on Android - living without Google on Android Android without any Google App? What to use instead of Hangouts, Map, Gmail? Is that even possible? And why would anyone want to live without Google? I've been using a lot of different custom ROMs on my devices, so far the two best: plain Cyanogenmod 11 snapshot on the Nexus 4[^1], and MIUI 2.3.2 on the HTC Desire G7[^2]. All the others ( MUIU 5, MIUI 6 unofficial, AOKP, Kaos, Slim, etc ) were either ugly, unusable, too strange or exceptionally problematic on battery life. For a long time, the first step for me was to install the Google Apps, gapps packages for Plays Store, Maps, and so on, but lately they require so much rights on the phone that I started to have a bad taste about them. Then I started to look for alternatives. 1 of 5 So, what to replace with what? Play Store I've been using F-Droid[^3] as my primary app store for a while now, but since it's strictly Free Software[^4] store only, sometimes there's just no app present for your needs; aptoide[^5] comes very handy in that cases. Hangouts I never liked Hangouts since the move from Gtalk although for a little while it was exceptional for video - I guess it ended when the mass started to use it in replacement of Skype and its recent suckyness. For chat only, check out: ChatSecure[^6], Conversations[^7] or Xabber[^8]. All of them is good for Gtalk-like, oldschool client and though Facebook can be configured as XMPP as well, I'd recommend Xabber for that, the other two is a bit flaky with Facebook.

  • Security System for Mobile Messaging Applications Pejman Dashtinejad
    Security System for Mobile Messaging Applications Pejman Dashtinejad Master of Science Thesis Stockholm, Sweden TRITA–ICT–EX-2015:2 Introduction | 1 Security System for Mobile Messaging Applications Pejman Dashtinejad 8 January 2015 Master of Science Thesis Examiner Professor Sead Muftic Department of ICT KTH University SE-100 44 Stockholm, Sweden TRITA–ICT–EX-2015:2 Abstract | iii Abstract Instant messaging (IM) applications are one of the most popular applications for smartphones. The IMs have the capability of sending messages or initiating voice calls via Internet which makes it almost cost free for the users to communicate with each other. Unfortunately, like any other type of applications, majority of these applications are vulnerable to malicious attacks and have privacy issues. The motivation for this thesis is the need to identifying security services of an IM application and to design a secure system for any mobile messaging application. This research proposes an E2EE (End-to-End Encryption) approach which provides a secure IM application design which protects its users with better integrity, confidentiality and privacy. To achieve this goal a research is conducted to investigate current security features of popular messaging applications in the mobile market. A list of requirements for good security is generated and based on those requirements an architecture is designed. A demo is also implemented and evaluated. Keywords: Mobile, Application, messaging, Chat, Encryption, Security Acknowledgments | v Acknowledgments First and foremost, thank you God to give me another chance to complete my higher education and to learn enormous skills and knowledge through all these years of study at the university.

This digest is intended for a technical audience and provides a listing of items we identified. Findings are separated into analysis areas, followed by categories and additional support details when available. Each finding is represented by a Red, Orange, Yellow or Green colored square. Red indicates a high level of risk and used to indicate when a test has failed. Orange indicates a moderate level of risk Yellow indicates a low risk or informational finding Green indicates that no risk conditions were identified and used to indicate when a test has passed. Index Privacy Summary Security Summary Analysis Data Leakage Libraries OWASP Summary Communications Privacy Summary 54/100 The privacy summary focuses on the application’s access to privacy data, including (but not limited to): user data, contacts access, unique device MED identifiers, adware, SMS, and insecure storage of data and communications. Content Providers are implicitly insecure. They allow other applications on the device to request and share data. If sensitive information is accidentally leaked in one of these content providers all an attacker needs to do is call the content provider and the sensitive data will be exposed to the attacker by the application.This is cause for concern as any 3rd party application containing malicious code does not require any granted permissions in order to obtain sensitive information from these applications.

  • A Framework for Developing Context-Aware Mobile Applications
    Magni - A Framework for Developing Context-aware Mobile Applications Ricardo Queir´os1, Filipe Portela2, and Jos´eMachado2 1 ESMAD, Polytechnic of Porto, Portugal 2 Algoritmi Research Centre, University of Minho, Portugal. Abstract. The advent of Internet and ubiquitous technologies has been fostering the appearance of intelligent mobile applications aware of their environment and the objects nearby. Despite its popularity, mobile de- velopers are often required to write large and disorganized amounts of code, mixing UI with business logic and interact, in a ad-hoc fashion, with sensor devices and services. These habits hinder the code maintenance, refactoring and testing, while negatively influencing the consistency and performance of mobile applications. In this paper we present Magni as an abstract framework for the design and implementation of personalized and context-aware mobile applications. The corner stone of the frame- work is its architectural pattern based on the Model-View-Presenter pat- tern in the UI layer relying in REST services the majority of the app features. This paradigm fosters the modular design, implementing the separation of concerns concept and allowing an easier implementation of unit tests. In order to validate the framework, we present a prototype for an healthcare automotive app. The main goal of the app is to facilitate the access to health related points of interest such as hospitals, clinics and pharmacies. Keywords: Web services, Design patterns, Mobile frameworks, Geolo- calization, Interoperability, Mobile healthcare, Automotive apps 1 Introduction The increased use of mobile devices and their ubiquitous facet, fostered the design of context-aware applications that make use of data collected from the sensors' device and location services.
