In this version of PowerTutor the Power Profiler service is run on -startup and power consumption traces are sent back to the PowerTutor team. This -helps us identify common power consumption problems for real applications. The -information will be used to improve PowerTutor and recommend power efficiency -improvements to other software, with the end goal of increasing your phone\'s -battery life.\n
\n -We gather\n - - CPU use\n - - Amount of WiFi/3G traffic (not its content)\n - - Screen brightness\n - - GPS activity (but not location)\n - - Audio use (on/off, volume)\n - - Total power consumption\n - - Application resource utilization\n - - Phone mode, e.g., airplane mode or call status\n -
-\nWe do NOT gather any of your personal data used in applications -or phone call logs. None of these data will be associate with you or your phone. -We use a cryptographically secure hash function to protect your identity.\n -
\n -PowerTutor will send back traces only when the phone is plugged in and -will prefer to use Wifi to send back the traces, although your carrier\'s data -service will be used if Wifi is rarely available. If you would like to disable -sending traces you can do so in the menu or by turning off background data in -the android options. -
