That sounds good, but how well does it work? I'd you find an app that solves a use case for you - what factors do you use to determine whether you trust this developer? How can the average iPhone (/smartphone) user apply this?
- banachtarski 8y agoIt works great. Even my parents learned what to install and not install on their windows PC. The key being that the safety features are all on by default. But for those of us that need to run software off the beaten path, we can.
- mikejb 8y agoI'd love to teach my parents, but I'm still challenged by giving them indicators to determine what should or shouldn't be installed. I actually find it hard to do myself, so maybe you can help. For example: My mom likes to play Sudoku. How should she go about to determine whether it's fine to install this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.easybrain.sudoku.android https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.easybrain.... ? How can she (or I) determine whether this data is uploading data collected on her phone or doing some other sort of shenanigans?
