XPrivacy

XPrivacy is a software tool that allows users to protect their confidential information from hacking. You can restrict access to mail data, microphone, contacts list, gallery, calendar notes, history of visited web resources and much more. Using the program is possible on Android gadgets with root access.

Preparation for use

The software is not able to function if a person does not have root access. In addition, the user needs to download a special framework called Xposed to the device. It is worth noting that the utility works correctly on many versions of the mobile OC. However, the program is not compatible with the proprietary shell from Xiaomi Corporation.

Security

With the help of the program's toolkit, a person discovers the ability to restrict websites and applications from accessing various information. These include:

• MMS and SMS;
• The Wi-Fi hotspot being used;
• Pictures and videos from the gallery;
• Built-in microphone;
• Calendar notes;
• History of visited Internet pages;
• Device's internal memory;
• User location;
• Account data;
• Contacts list;
• Use of NFC module;
• Built-in camera of the tablet or phone;
• E-mail and so on.

The person decides for himself which information he wants to add to the program. The user can also grant access to information for certain applications and Internet sites.

The mobile program can not be erased from the memory of the portable device using standard methods. If a person wants to delete the software, he will need to use a third-party software with the appropriate functionality.
