Privacy and Digital Life - Off-topic

Hey folks, i created a telegram group about anything related on privacy and data rights in a always more connected and social world.
I just created it but i plan on expanding it as much as possible, because i care a lot about privacy and human rights.
If you are interested you can take a look at "@privacydigitalrights" on telegram, i'm also looking for non-english speakers to help me moderate other languages groups, so we can build up a stronger community!

i dont find your group by typing that in aearch? hmmmm?
edit: found it

About MindPush
MindPush, the latest innovation from JimmyGood Technology, creators of the leading online text message management portal CiiAll, is like nothing else on the market. As products such as Facebook and LinkedIn increasingly focus on contact between people who know each other, we realize that you want something more. With MindPush, you can:
- Connect with other MindPush users in your location, anonymously
- Share information as easily as sending a text, while limiting what others can see
- Interact with “like”, comments and other collaborative features
- Get the information you need about the places you like best, instantly
- Give users at your company or school the chance to communicate more effectively
- Learn more about your location via brief, digestible messages
How it works and what we need from YOU!
MindPush is a location based application – so you can see messages that have been posted within 1/2 mile of your current location at any given time. Users are able to leave anonymous messages, so other users can view and interact with them once they are in the same location. This interaction can happen in real-time, but users can also see past messages in their location up to 30 days. If another user is active within the 1/2 mile range, they will be shown on the user icon and Proximity map. This is to encourage users to post new messages and interact with not only their given material environment, but the people in that environment as well.
We need YOU to start leaving your anonymous messages and feedback everywhere you go! Imagine a future where you can go into any restaurant, bar, clothing store, sports venue, coffee shop, etc. and instantly get useful information from your peers using MindPush. Also imagine the power from being able to anonymously leave your feedback everywhere you go for other users to benefit from. MindPush can and will change the way we interact with our immediate surroundings…and with each other! Start leaving messages and connecting with the world around you today!

Feedback?
Has anyone tried this out yet? I would love to receive some feedback from the XDA community!
Thanks!
I tried it.. Good idea. Drains battery though im im gonna keep it and use it to see what its like. Does it only work in my area or can i use it to communicate with people outside of my city/state?
As of right now - you can only view messages and other users that are within 150 feet of your current location (we have/are considering making the range wider though...depends on initial download numbers and feedback). The messages will change depending on where you are located and what other users have posted in the area.
As for the battery drain - we realized that having your GPS location set while the app is running - and having the app call our servers to update the location of other users and various messages could be an issue for some as far as battery goes. Once you've logged into the app, press the menu button to access the battery drain slider. From there you can set the time interval for how often the app will call the server for updates which should help improve battery drain based on your preferences.
Thanks for the feedback and support! Please let me know if you have any other questions or suggestions. I really want this to be an app for the people and am more than willing to listen to how people are using the app and what could make it better! The iOS version was completed today and will be submitted to Apple for approval. Once that is done, you will be able to communicate cross platform and the numbers of users in each area should improve as the user base grows.
Update coming soon
We will be releasing an update soon to widen the range to 1/2 mile. Users will be able to view other messages up to 1/2 mile and see how many users are within 1/2 mile as well. This should really increase interaction between users and provide more information about cool things going on in your area! Let me know what you think.
Thanks

How do you monitor your competitors?

Hey everyone,
I'm wondering what is everybody doing to stay on top of competing apps and other app market changes? What tools do you use? I've been working on a project to solve this problem and I'd love some input and feedback.
Thanks!
Here are some basicly tools for it: (1)appinner.com, it is an app internal data analysis platform, with it you can find which advertising platform sdk your competitor choose, how does they construt their apps,etc.
(2)flurry. it is a tool to track your apps performance, give you detailed insight in your users count, session length etc. (3)appannie. you can check the keywords and ranking List of apps.
https://sensortower.com is a must check. It will give you very valuable insight on what to do and what not about keywords and rankings (with a pretty cool daily email that reports you all you need to know about your app and his ranking).
As JimmyG20 said too, appannie is a must check too.
4 Simple Ways to Monitor Your Competitor's -
1. Sign up to receive their email or newsletter
2. Explore their website
3. Like and follow on social networks
4. Give them a call.
Useful sources to track
Hey,
These may be:
Sensortower with TOP charts
Appannie - also store stats
Statista sometimes publishes the stats abour certain apps

YOUTUBE TV locked out of family sharing group

When you leave the Family sharing group so many times, it propts you that you can't make another group for another 12 months. (THAT'S CRAZY!) But you can get it back by going to the help section within the YouTube app. Just explain your problem. He was also happy to take suggestions for new channels! ?

Whatsapp group notifications (new?) style

Hi all,
recently bought an xz2 and can't stand how Whatsapp notifies group messages:
it shows the icon of user's profile instead of the group's, and user's name is bold;
the name of the group itself is found much smaller at the top of the notification.
I fear that's something related to newer versions of Android like Pie or even Oreo,
apologize if it's been this way all along, I've been using a stock z3c for years.
Googling or exploring system/whatsapp settings was unsuccessful for me,
I hoped you guys could give me some info about this.
I'll try posting a screenshot to clarify as soon as possible.
Thanks for the patience
Edit: baobab is group name and blacked stuff is user related

Looking for help in application development

Hi all, I'm interested in FOSS-related stuff and I believe this to be the proper forum (Stackexchange is a bit of a headache to use). I was looking for making an impenetrable network modeled after Tor that uses bogon addresses for websites instead of .onion or .i2p, and it also encrypts all your traffic over a cryptographic hash. I intend it to be for iOS as a developer IPA. You might have to back-up and store your key on a SD card and the only way you can unencrypt it is to have access to that SD. And it also spoofs your IP so ISPs cannot see your traffic. It works similar to a DDOS in that it uses BGP and martian addresses. Once downloaded via Torrent, you will be taken to a Firefox page of an adminlogin.php page, where you enter your credentials into. I'll call this an "open circuit". After you have set your username and password, you will be taken to a "closed circuit" which is basically what I'll call "Ghost Web". I'm assuming your traffic would be kinda slow, but as for how much, I have no clue. Does anybody have knowledge in this realm? And even if I got a few things wrong, anything close enough that'll make my custom idea for a perfect network work? I know Media Land LLC hosts these websites. Although I heard they're illegal. Is that true, because I don't have too much knowledge in the terms of IPs and all that ish.
Reason I ask is because nowadays privacy and free speech is getting destroyed by Big Tech monopolies. There are social media applications out there, some of which I might add are rather decent, like Rocket.Chat, Viber and Threema, but Tor and other forms of network technology always fall victim to the same problems they tried to address, and in many cases got abandoned (like CJDNS). Lokinet uses the Oxen blockchain, which, while it does make Sybil MITM attacks more expensive, however not impossible. I want censorship and privacy to be inevitable 100% with this app.
