About this app

This application aims at studying the diversity of smartphone fingerprints and providing developers with data to help them design good defenses. This application collects an anonymous smartphone fingerprint without using a single permission (apart from the one providing access to the Internet) related to the device's configuration and operating system. The goal of our research is to understand if any application on the Play Store could identify users without relying on any given identifiers already present on Android.

Ratings and reviews

BROKEN APP. Why do I have to use the Google Play store? I should be able to download directly from your site or Fdroid. if you're thinking about uniqueness, why are you demanding the Google Play store? Stops on content://com.android.contacts/settings and never continues even after 5 minutes.

This app is maintained by researchers based in France and funded by public money. It aims to research device fingerprinting that is more advanced than just cookies in browsers. It is a much-needed scientific research issue. I am glad to be able to support this unique European research opportunity to share my data for a purpose of good!

doesn't work. Just stops at android.contact/settings i've tried for 15+ minutes again and again and again and again
