Hi everyone,
Just wanted to share with you what we've been working on and released finally yesterday to the store. Will always be FREE and WITHOUT ADS.
Securacy is the first mobile network data application exposer. This software allows you to pinpoint exactly which applications are breaking your concerns in terms of permissions, to where the application talks and if that connection was established over a secure protocol.
Do you want:
- To know what your applications are doing without you knowing?
- To know where your applications are sending data?
- To know how safe is your application?
- To voice your privacy and security concerns?
- To notify others of potential security and privacy invasive applications?
Then this application is for YOU!
=== Data statement ===
Securacy does not collect any personal data. The only data it collects is:
- Your explicit ratings and concerns;
- The applications you use, install, remove and update (to notify you of securacy concerns);
- The details of the network connections that your applications use to send/receive data. This only includes the IP addresses of the servers, and the ports used by the connection. No other data is collected about network connections.
You can find it on the store
Let me know if you have more ideas for it, we are still developing it!
Cheers!
Some screenshots of the application:

this app made my phone freaking slow! it just keep popping to start the accessibility service though it's on.app crashed when click to show,& app is really slow!log attached.
Sorry to hear that. I took a look at the logcat but it doesn't give me much to go on.
Can you tell me what device are you using, Android version, is it a custom ROM, do you have Google Services installed (it's required for the GMaps)? My guess is that for some reason your device is not returning the list of active accessibility services correctly or at all. If that is the case, then it's better for you to not use it, unfortunately.
Thanks!

Recently, I found that the "Android System Info" app below is using Flurry Agent to send data / report via 3G/internet whenever I start using it. At least, it came out in the logging.
Do you know any alternative that does not use Flurry Agent?
I hate that thing because it uses 3G/internet and it cannot be disabled
I know Astrid is using Flurry Agent as well, but it can be disabled.

i believe that is for the download of the ADs to sustain their income & development
use Adfree perhpas?
Well, I think that is not ads ... Ads should be the AdMob SDK or something in the logging.
Flurry Agent is about analytic:
http://www.flurry.com/
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=673146
To be honest, I don't mind with ads ... Especially if that can support the dev and the app is good.
But, I don't like sending usage pattern, statistical data, usage analysis, that kind of things.

Many devs find analytics to be important information to them.
You could edit your hosts file manually to block any flurry.com urls...
Not rooted, you cant do that.
Good developer will add an option to disable this, like Astrid.

Your last sentence doesn't quite sit right for some reason, but I agree overall.
Something in the back of my mind tells me there's a revenue stream to the developers who include this. Like flurry pays them a royalty for data collected. That needs confirmation, but while many devs put stuff out for the love of the device, many more need to get some income off the app to stay interested in developing/maintaining it. We all want "free" apps, but we're going to have to get used to either paying up in cash, or paying up in seeing ads, or paying up by having some analytics collected on us.
I don't want my phone spied on either. Best thing you can do is uninstall the apps that spy on you without the feature to turn it off, give the app a 1-star rating on the market, and leave a comment that it collects analytics on you and you don't like that. Kind of lousy thing to do an app that's otherwise top-notch. If enough people uninstall and bad rate these apps, the devs will get the hint and stop doing it.
As for not rooted, there's no reason not to root the Nexus S. There are hundreds of reason to root, though. Blocking ads and spyware is just one of them.
You don't even have to unlock the bootloader to do it, easy instructions here; no loss of data with that method.
Today I tried fiddling a bit with this app. It's all good but after disabling a couple services in the Gmail app and finding out that they were needed a few minutes later, it seems like whenever I try bring them back to their prior unfrozen state they just won't stick, and every time I open the app they appear to be unchecked again. I'd really love to keep using this app but I damn sure need Gmail so...any idea on why this might be happening?
Edit: the app keeps killing the processes as shown on the attached pic.

I also sent an email to the developer, looking forward to be able to use the app without issues if I manage, it solved all of my wakelock issues, then this happened...
Still nothing from the dev, in the meantime I switched to Inbox which doesn't seem to be affected, still hoping to fix this tho...

I used to have the same problem. It turned out that I was being too aggressive with disabling limes into Google Play Services. However if I restore them it simply sticks as it should in the app, so it's not a big deal. With Gmail however it's a whole different story, at least on my device/ROM layout. I could try a full wipe but ain't nobody got time for dat...
A factory reset didnt repair the service status. I am rethinking of using disable service , does it slow down the phone over time ?

I'm mot using it right now, but I moticed that after I unistalled it the processes I blocked within the app remained blocked. A few seconds before uninstalling I just enabled Gmail, and being the app removed it just sticked for once. So even tho it's quite a crooked way to do it I managed to have Gmail working and the app doing its job anyway, even if it's currently not installed. It is a shame that one has to do such dirty workarounds in order to make things work as they should without breaking functionality, but that's the "fix" I'm using at the moment. Still no word from the dev so I've kinda lost hope anyways.

I wonder how much of a difference all of our micro managing really makes. Sure some processes are pretty toxic but when running a very slim build like deodexed XtreStoLite there isn't really much left to kill...right now I'm just using Greenify after a fresh install and I seem to be getting pretty much the same battery life...
Inviato dal mio SM-G925K utilizzando Tapatalk
No work for greenify on a clean install . The apps and service pile up over time . For me its :-
1. Freezing /unfreeze for facebook,kindle,amazon,etc
2.Disable services
3.App Ops
4. If apps crashes because of service disable then add on greenify
5. App Ops Startup + bootmanager
Using Old version of some apps like airdroid.
Searching around for a guide or better yet app to remove all the phone files from my p900. I would think it might benefit from that stuff not loading and running when its useless. Any ideas or comments would be appreciated.
Forgot to mention running stock lollypop 5.0.2 by Civato full Samsung rom.
There are many app removers on Google Play
https://play.google.com/store/search?q=app remover&c=apps&hl=en
Yes there are app removers. Have not found anything that will remove/kill phone services. Freezing them in titanium doesn't seem to stop them either. I was hoping someone knew what files and apks to safely remove.

I wonder why you believe there are phone services running in a Wifi model SM-P900. Even in a LTE tablet , all phone apps are disable.
This is an example from my LTE tablet from TMobile, Phone app is disable to prevent users use a LTE tablet as a phone.
Look at your Application Manager--> All, you will see Phone app is disable.

If you look at running apps and services with an app like say fmr memory I think its called. You will see phone related apps running. I use it to find, tweak and turn off things I don't use or need with Titanium.

You should post a snapshot of processed of those you think phone related apps; otherwise it's very hard to answer a general question
regarding phone activities in a Wifi Note Pro.
My LTE doesn't have any activities of phone services when checking all running apps.
Deleted com.phone.android and it no longer runs. Many task apps show more detail on what is actually running on your system.
Hello guys,
I know already there are a bunch of apps that do the same task and it's not that hard does this manually too. However, this is my first app posted to the play store too. And it will be great to hear your opinion about my app.
Show WiFi Password - Get It Now on Google Play
Features of the app
Support all Android version above ICS - Including Oreo and above
Show the Connected Network at the top
Most of the times Which I wanted to get the saved wifi passwords, I really wanted to know the password of currently connected networks password(For share with friends or Connect another device). However, I did not found any app which optionally shows the details of the currently connected network. So I added that that feature to this hoping it will save few seconds of your life searching for it.
One Touch Search and Share - Search has been Implemented with a single touch without additional pop-ups
I know that there isn't a much, But I try to keep the app simple and on the Niche and lightweight(only 2 mb)
Check out the trailer and the Screenshots below and give it a try

Some UX issue has been fixed now there may be a better experience
Ya i was using wifi password show, but showing conected network feature in your app is really good as it saves time which needs to spend searching for it. However still missing password exporting and syncing features.

Don't work on my Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra With Android 11 with Magisk (Beyond 2 Rom )
currently my S20FE 5G is running a rooted stock based custom rom that has a few OneUI 4 elements in it somewhere, no idea what those actually are.
I'm getting some steep battery drain but otherwise I'm quite happy with the rom and want to keep it.
I've got a partial wakelock called VK_WakeLock, it's keeping the phone from sleeping when the screen is off. I searched for a while and can't find a method that would help me find the app that's causing it or even better the specific service or process.
if we know the name of a wakelock is there any terminal commands or apps that could lead me to a package / process name ?

I have background data off, I have a firewall that keeps the majority of apps without internet. most of my user apps (which aren't involved) don't do background stuff, so basically I've got no idea right now.

it hasn't been a battery drain for me previously, if it was an update that brought this effect the internet would be full of posts regarding it. as it stands their are only a handful of search results for VK_WakeLock.

Well you know how I feel about updates...
You can try making sure all system apps are updated or roll them back to their factory load versions.
Clear system cache. Clear system app caches or data.
Find the root cause. You need to ID that apk responsible for your mystery name.
or
Factory reset and hope that gets it.
This is why I don't update. Cleaning up an update mess is time consuming.
