[App][4.0+] Privacy Helper - Android Apps and Games

Educating users about the dangers of app permissions
Introduction
Data privacy is one of the most hotly-discussed topics in the digital world today. Many developers have made an effort to help increase the security of the user's data, however code is not perfect.
Currently, it is far too easy for users to enable permissions that will then potentially allow adversaries to uniquely identify the user and hence compromise their privacy.
What Privacy Helper brings is a simple, easy-to-use educational app with that leverages the mobile platform to inform and demonstrate effectively and interactively.
Features
Simple privacy quiz to test the user's privacy knowledge
Guide on data privacy, and the problem with Android
Guides on disabling permissions, unused apps, and other mitigations
Simple map demonstration of location tracking
List of dangerous permissions used by popular Android applications
Guide on Open Source app alternatives
List of alternative resources to help the user increase their knowledge
Sharing with popular platforms including Facebook, Twitter, and more

About myself, motivation and more
About myself
Hi there My name is Joshua Lay and I’m a computer science student at Monash University. I’m mostly known for my experience in tweaking mobile Linux kernels such as for the Samsung Galaxy S2 and the Samsung Galaxy S5. I have recently gained interest in the mobile app development field, and so I started off by creating the Privacy Helper Android app.
Motivation
Before I picked up mobile app development studies, I've always had the idea to create an app that would effectively spread my knowledge about app privacy and security to a wider audience. I was further motivated by guides such as PrivacyTools.io and Prism Break providing a easy-to-use webpage for all to see and use, but was immediately intrigued to see if there was something similar but in the form of a mobile app.
While traditionally, a mobile app is something that must be used occasionally and not just once, but however my main goal for creating this app compared to a website would be to utilize the offline capabilities and portability of a smartphone to help educate people around the world.
So why isn't there a download for Google play or xyz Store?
I haven't found the need to publish my app on the play store, especially since I don't have a Google Play developer license and because I have just started to build apps by myself. As for other stores, I'm only willing to make my app available on F-Droid, GitLab and XDA-labs. Any other source should be treated as suspicious.
So if you app says using apps from unknown sources are dangerous, then what does this say about your app?
My app is completely open-source (FOSS btw). No strings attached and no gimmicks. You can see my implementation over at GitLab. Don't trust me? Feel free to remove the app. I'll try to be as transparent as possible should there be any concerns.
I can see everything is in English, I can help translate...
I'll need to make some arrangements before I allow anyone to help translate. Remember that there are many (often lengthy) sentences that needs to be translated. If you have the time, please feel free to PM me to let me know
So you're open-source, but then app icons listed come from real (closed-source, often proprietary) apps. What gives?
If this is an issue, I can make arrangements to seek alternative resources. My main aim isn't to make any app developer feel or look bad, but rather to educated users about problematic apps often seen with apps downloaded from questionable sources.
I feel that I can help improve your app, where can I start?
Feel free to fork my project, make changes, and then submit a pull request. Remember that my project is GPL and so any violations will not be taken lightly (case-by-case).
Want to use some of my code?
I'm completely fine with people using parts of my code. I learnt a large majority of code from reading online, and so due to the nature of GPL, this would also mean others can also learn from mine. I've tried my best to cite sources where applicable.
What changes can I expect in the future?
While the future of my app remains unknown, I have some features I still want to implement (see the issue tracker on my GitLab).

F-Droid, a package repository (aka "market") of Open Source software for Android

Hello,
Searching thru forums, F-Droid already got some mentioning on XDA-Developers, and there may be some posts about it in per-device forums, but I'd really want to start a general thread about which would benefit all Android users.
 is a software package repository of Free/Open Source (FOSS) Android software, with strict adherence to Open Source principles and licensing. Which means that we take care that applications included are truly Open Source (so anyone can hack on them any time and share with others), build most of applications included from source (we strive to build all of them), and make sure that you can reproduce the builds we do easily.
What provided are:
On-device client which you may use to browse thru the catalog of available applications based on categories, search for a specific package, install/uninstall a package, see what packages already installed, see available updates, etc.
Source repository with packages recipes decsribing how to build each individual package
Build system for package recipes
Web site with online repository browser
Growing dedicated community wanting to make software landscape of Android better

Mini-FAQ
Q: So, you are mimicking Market?
A: No, we are basing on decades of experience of package management in Unix/Linux OS distribution. What marketing people call "appstores" and "markets" is basing on those decades of experience too, they just focus on different things.
Q: Mwa-ha-ha, you're fools, Market is better, I will keep using it!
A: You're welcome to. We're not really to conquer the world ;-). As any Open Source project, F-Droid is made to scratch the itch of its users. So, if you see issues with Market, if you value Open Source, you will like F-Droid. If not, just keep using Market. Feel free to give F-Droid a whirl though - maybe you'll like it at the end as the second source of apps.
Q: I have some app installed on my device, but saw that F-Droid has newer version and tried to install it. However, it said that it uses different key and said that I should uninstall old version first. Why so?
A: There's some criticism of Android security, but it's not that bad in principle. Consider following example: you found some cool app, liked it, and ended up storing your credit card info in it. Then, on some random site, you find something which claims to be a great new version of your app, but actually an exploit made by some black hat. The message you see is exactly to protect you against such situation: each app is signed with provider's (usually, developer's) key, and if new version of the app is not signed with the same key, Android won't let you to install it as an upgrade, potentially letting a virus to get hold of your valuable data.
Well, as said before, F-Droid builds apps from source, and it is an app provider in this case, so all apps signed with F-Droid keys, not original developer's. That's why you see that message. If you trust F-Droid (you don't have to by word - we offer source code, please feel free to verify), you can backup your app's data if any, remove old version, install F-Droid's version, restore data, and from now on you won't have this issue again - you will be delivered updates right with the F-Droid itself!
Q: How can I help?
A: Sure, we need help! If you like F-Droid, blog a review of it, tweet about new apps added, show it to your friends when meet them on a street. We need app testers and bug reporters, then bug triagers who would separate F-Droid issues from upstream ones. But first of all, we need developers to add more applications to make the project a real difference! Please join us! And if you like F-Droid, but don't think you have enough time or skills to participate in it, you can help with making a donation (links are available on the site).

How we started:
We noticed a while back that there was a lack of quality software available that allowed users to remotely access and manage multiple Android devices.
There are great apps such as Mobizen and Airdroid available, but they are mostly designed only to support a single device and are always running in the background, creating an obvious icon in the device’s notification bar and running up battery and data use. Then there is software like mSpy and WebWatcher, which have expensive monthly subscriptions, are unstable, and don’t create a real time connection with the device. They don’t give the control that users want.
So we set out to create Monitordroid, a dedicated commercial-grade remote access and management tool for Android.
The software is also open source and capable of being used completely free of charge if you are able to set up a web server and have a little experience with Android programming.
Monitordroid is designed from the ground up to be fundamentally different than any other remote administration software for Android. It does not use sockets, SMS, or XMPP to send commands to devices, all of which have been proven unstable or slow.
The software was developed from the very beginning to be incredibly stable and crash-resistant, so that once you install it on a device you never have to worry about doing so again.
Monitordroid is designed in a way that it is only run on the mobile device when a user sends it commands through the web application. For this reason, network usage and battery consumption are nearly non-existent.
Free Open-Source Installation:
To use Monitordroid free of charge, you're going to have to have your own server with PHP 5.0+ and MySQL. If you want to run Monitordroid on your local machine, software like XAMPP will work fine. After that, you can download the source code and make a few small modifications to configure the mobile application to connect to your server. Read more detailed instructions on how to setup your own (free) server in the readme.md file at:
https://github.com/tyler124/Monitordroid-Web-Application
When your server is ready, you can follow the instructions in the readme.md file for setting up the mobile app at:
https://github.com/tyler124/Monitordroid

How do i get the app or install this?
Sent from my VS980 4G using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
not available for my "Nexus 7" (It is really a Kindle Fire with a build.prop MOD), can I download an apk from somewhere?
Any plans on screen casting?

Afraid any features like screenshots or screencasting would require having a rooted device, which I'm not actively developing towards.
If anyone wants to contribute root-only features to the source though... :good:
Is there a limit on the number of devices that you can register to one account?
EDIT: also, there is a fine line between being useful and being useful to the point of being considered malware. DenDroid and other RAT applications have gotten huge amounts of bad press recently becuase of the functionality that they posess and the possibility of being installed without users knowledge by being packaged in other applications.
Do you have any plans in place to stop your application getting a bad name for itself? Or to stop it from being used for these kinds of purposes?
Perhaps by enforcing a manual registration process on the phone itself.
(I just want to make clear I am not, in any way, accusing this application of any sort of nefarious tasks)
EDIT2: I found the answer to my first question in your FAQ.
How many devices can I control with a single Monitordroid account?
During beta testing, Monitordroid limits users to a total of 10 devices per account. In the future, new accounts will most likely be limited to 5 devices at first, with the option to purchase more. In that case, customers who purchase in beta will still retain their 10 device maximum.

re monitoroid
Love to play with this, can it be set up on my own web server, rather than local wamp, or it needs access to android SDK files, which I guess could be done server side, just got too many other little projects on now to start trying to learn all that, I'll lock in a beta trial from your server for now, and play around on wamp when ibget a chance, then think about running off my web server, more practical in the long run, but for 10 bucks could just let you guys do all the heavy lifting, but lose a bit of full control... Good luck with the project. Could be a winner longterm
not sure if I am missing anything here, but isn't Webkey a better option with more functions and completely free?

Webkey user here. I was disappointed about not seeing remote screen view and control. But yes this requires root.
I respect not putting in root features but this is the only real feature i use of webkey.

Yes, at first I was conflicted about calling it a Remote Administration Tool due to the malicious reputation of similar tools even though that's what it really is. However, Monitordroid does require physical access to the device unlike other tools designed to be malicious which can be binded to another application's APK and spread through an app store.

mmm very basic application just for kids. NOT PRO.
No rooted features, no screen capture, stream audio, etc.
Just something any coder could code in 2 minutes.
Hope you improve it, else it is just for 4 years old kids that want to play with android

The Application is currently in a beta state with more standard features to be added soon. The application is also open-source with a good, stable foundation for server-device communication, so if someone wanted to contribute root-only features to the source I would happily be in support of that.
I may eventually develop root-only features myself, but for now i'm more focused on developing features that can be used on any device.
sounds good, downloading

Skit is not using root at all and it can delete installed (user) applications, but have no delete permissions for system applications.
That's nice But in future must add some root activities to do more things via this app any way nice one

WorldMeter is good.
Arcgis.com API is late.
Wikipedia is fast but data struture is not stable.
I created mirrors API which auto crawl data from sources by 5 minutes, if source [1] datastructe is not OK I wll try to source[2],...
If all source datastructure is changed or down, my server's cache will not be updated.
All client request will be serve by my serve cache.to protect sources data from flooding.
You can create better application base on my API:

Cluster or heatmap is better. The current one looks cramped and very little data can be seen. Can you add ability to bookmark countries. Like if we are interested to track 3 or several countries of interest. I think new infection as well is necessary data.
And please the news feed from worldometer is really helpful.

Didn't know there was a specific thread for this, even though I've been a member of XDA for such a long time (mostly active in the custom rom area), so I thought it would be a great idea to share my app with you guys! -
- Here are some screenshots taken from the app (full quality here) -​

APPLICATION PERMISSIONS​
Since you're not downloading the application from Google Play Store, you may want to know what permissions does this app require and when/where they are used, so here we go.
- Internet Permission -> Pretty obvious, it's used to gather and parse the latest COVID-19 stats, news & data
- Location Permission -> Disabled by default, users can enable it if they want to use location-based stats feature, since this uses, as you may expect, GPS Localization
- Networkstate Permission -> Used to monitor whether the application is/isn't connected to the internet, so that it will know whether to update the stats or not
That's all.​
WHY IS THE APP CLOSED SOURCE? WHY DON'T YOU POST THE SOURCE CODE?​
I have received these 2 questions a lot. The answer is that there are a lot of scammers out there in this period and I'm afraid they can modify the code to their benefit, so I won't be posting the source code, at least for now. ​
THE STORY & MOTIVATION BEHIND​
Google pulled this application twice out of Google Play Store, stating that it lacks sensivity towards CoronaVirus, which is obviously not true, since all it does is showing some actual real and official data (from WHO.INT & CDC) about COVID-19.​
As a result, I decided that instead of having a never-ending argue with Google Support & erasing more than 3 months of development (since I did everything by my own), I should post this application as it is here, without having to depend on Google.
The main purpose of this application was to help people have all the stats about CoronaVirus at a glance, on their android smartphones, but since Google did everything they could to stop this, I found myself with no other option than posting the application here, in hoping that the app will eventually fulfil its purpose.​
SUPPORT THE DEVELOPMENT​As every major step in life takes a huge ammount of time, this application was no exception to the rule.
If you enjoy it and would like me to continue adding more features, please make sure you
