Airpush Detector And Ad Detector

Airpush detector scans and protects your phone from potential privacy violations and identity leaks through ads displayed by apps via the most commonly used advertising networks.It is common for advertising networks to collect information on how you use your device. Your information is then used for targeted marketing campaigns.
airpush detector detects all annoyances of apps installed on your phone, such as Push Notifications, Desktop icon spam ads and
apps with privacy concerns. It identifies the adware and spyware and allows you to then remove it.
Some common and aggressive methods include:
ï Pushing ads to your Android notification bar
ï Creating unauthorized shortcuts on your home screen
ï Modifying the default browser, homepage and bookmarks settings
ï Subscribing you to emails and text messages when an ad is clicked
ï Making phone calls and downloading malicious files when an ad is clicked

All said above the airpush detector is a free app and Because each of these techniques can display an advertisement outside the context of a specific application, it's very difficult for users to know exactly which app is responsible for any given ad. Ad Network Detector provides a method for users to determine which ad network and application are the source for such ads.It's also common for ad networks to collect information that identifies a specific device or user for use in targeted marketing campaigns. Much like for browser-based ads, this practice allows users to see more personalized or relevant ads. Despite permissions-based information access, it is often difficult for the users to understand what aspects of their information are collected by ad networks. Lookout Labs has investigated the capabilities and information collection methods specific to each ad network. Ad Network Detector tells users exactly what data is being collected, and by whom.We've designed Ad Network Detector to make the practices supporting mobile advertising more transparent to the average user. The app detects many but not all ad networks, and we fully intend to increase the number of detected ad networks to keep mobile users as informed as possible.
