About this APK

It asks for 5 permissions, none of them sensitive.

Description

From the listing uploaded by “wizardslair”.

Launch apps on your android phone remotely using HTTP GET requests. For example, to launch firefox, use your browser to request : http://yourPhoneIP:8888/start/org.mozilla.firefox The app need to be requested by its package name (Remote App Launch will show the package name of each app on your phone, don't worry). To stop the app remotely, you just need to switch from "start" to "stop" in the URL : http://yourPhoneIP:8888/stop/org.mozilla.firefox Be aware that android doesn't allow a foreground app to be killed, only background processes. If you remotely launch an app that stays in foreground, it can't be killed remotely by Remote App Launch. Each app you want to start remotely need to be added in a white list within RemoteAppLaunch (for security reasons). You can add one more security layer by using HTTP Authentication with a user/password needed to start/stop apps. In that case, to launch an app just use the following URL : http://username:password@yourPhoneIP:8888/start/org.mozilla.firefox

Remote App Launch APK: questions and answers

Can I install this APK over the version I already have?

Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.

Is the Remote App Launch APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Trusted. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is 6441586a209956191c346c91489aaa98.
