Intentsiti 1.2
Mark Anacker
Intentsiti is a helper app - by itself, itdoes almost nothing. But when called upon by another app using theAndroid Intent mechanism, it allows that app access to various bitsof data from your device.It was primarily designed to extend the capabilities of the MITApp Inventor 2 framework (AI2). This is a massively fun, fast, easyway to create apps, but it has some limitations on what it can knowabout the device it's running on.So I decided to utilize the system built-in to Android, andcreate an externalcomponent that AI2 apps can call on for support.Other Android apps and programming tools, such as SL4A, are ableto use it as well. All it takes is the ability to generate anExplicit Intent. Intentsiti sends the results back to the callingapp as an easy-to-parse text string.The minimal user interface is only used to change Intentsitysettings, and access the extensive documentation. Otherwise, itruns in the background of your apps, silently providing them withinformation. It's been tested on everything from cheap phones tohigh-end tablets.This version of Intentsiti can return the following useful bitsof information:- Android build number- Android ID (supposed to be device unique, but may not be)- A UUID built from the Android ID and Telephony ID (may be moredevice unique)- The number of cameras on this device- The current battery and power supply status and levels- The root path to the SD card (real or emulated)- Information about the external storage device- The current state of the external storage device- A list of files and directories at a given path- Filesystem stats - (size, permissions, modified date) of anygiven file/directory- Current WiFi status - state, SSID, BSSID, speed, signal- Wifi info - device MAC addess, current IP address- Current phone status - type, call state, data state andactivity, operator name- Phone info - phone ID (i.e. IMEI/ESN/MEID),software version(IMEI/ISV), subscriber ID (i.e. IMSI),phone number (MSISDN)The Phone and Wifi info commands may be disabled, in case you don'twant this potentially sensitive information available to otherapps.The web page has a couple of sample apps showing how to useIntentsiti from App Inventor 2. More samples and more features willbe added regularly, so stay tuned.

If you have bothversions, Pro can read and upgrade the encryption of your Litephotos.This is not a "vault" - it's a photo encryption manager. Vaultsare fine enough, but they trap all of your photos into a singledevice. LokPixPro lets you copy or back them up individually,without exposure. This makes it very easy to distributeconfidential photos.LokPixLite has the following differences from LokPixPro:- The encryption system is fairly weak. LokPixPro is very strong(and thus export-restricted to the U.S.).- LokPixLite allow only 1 self-timer setting.- LokPixLite does not have the shutter-mute orlocation-stripping functions.Try it today for free!See our website athttp://www.closecrowd.com/Pages/LokPixLite2Intro.aspxfor details on using LokPixLite, or any of our other apps.Have questions or comments?

LokPixShred 1.3
Mark Anacker
Privacy is important these days, but hardtomaintain. LokPixShred helps you get rid of unwanted photosandvideos on your device - PERMANENTLY!When you delete a photo from the Android Gallery, the spaceitoccupies on the SD card is simply marked as unused. The bitsofyour photos and videos are still there, and may be easilyrecoveredwith free tools! This will result in a loss of privacy,should yourdevice be lost, stolen, or even simply traded-in for anew model.Even a factory wipe command may only delete the files,and notactually obliterate them.LokPixShred will scan your phone or tablet looking forfilesending with .jpg, .gif, .png, or .bmp (the most commonphotoformats), or video files (3gp, mp4, mpg, mpeg, mov, mkv, wmv,andavi). Once it finds the files, it displays thumbnail previews inascrollable grid. You then select the files to be removed bytappingon them, and press the Shred button. All of the selectedfiles willbe overwritten with cryptographically-generated randomdata, thendeleted. This prevents the recovery of these files whensomeoneelse gets their hands on your device..Some devices don't even have removable storage (i.e SD cards)-this app may be your only effective means of sanitizing thedevicebefore selling it.We have tested the shredded SD card images with the bestfilerecovery programs available, and have yet to recoveranythingprocessed with this app.. Of course, due to the way thatflashmemory devices store data, we can't guarantee that ALL ofthetargeted files are unrecoverable. If you need total assuranceofdestruction, drop your device into the nearest volcano.LokPixShred is fast, efficient, and very effective.This app does NOT collect or transmit any personalinformation.It requests the following Android permissions:- Storagemodify/delete SD card contentsPlease note: The possession and/or use of this softwaremaycontravene your local laws.
