Summary:Smart phones are more and more popular nowadays, which leads data security to an extremely important focus. As most users store their private information in smart phones. Such as personal accounts, passcodes, private notes, pictures, videos and so forth. We also heard a lot of News that some people suffered economic losses due to the information stored in his/her phones was stolen. Even worse, some people will suffer mental pressure if their private photos or videos are being uploaded to the public.

In this project, more user-friendly, effective and multi-factors implemented android application will be developed to better protect the privacy of Android smart phones users.
