CryptoSafe Pro
CryptoSafe is a professionally developed Android application that allows you to store your sensitive information, passwords, bank accounts, credit cards, etc. safely and securely inside an encrypted database.

A unique feature of CryptoSafe is that it allows you to create multiple passwords and to maintain multiple sets
of entries. If one of your passwords is stolen or compromised the other passwords are still safe. If your phone is confiscated, or if you are forced to reveal your password, you can always keep some harmless-looking set of
“Decoy” data encrypted under an alternate password, give up that one and keep the real entries secret.

This feature is called “Deniable Encryption” and it is only one of the ways in which CryptoSafe maintains the confidentiality of your private information, as CryptoSafe has been carefully hardened against attacks, much more than other password apps in the Android Market.

Voice Search, Visual Search and Results Prerendering

June 14th, 2011

Google is constantly innovating. Other companies would settle into a nice comfortable niche and start exploiting their customers.

Two of the most important Google mobile services: voice search and visual search will now be available from your computer.

Voice search, a feature that’s built into Android, also works in Google Chrome and allows you to search using your voice. Chrome added support for the Speech Input API back in April and it’s the only browser that implemented the API. Right now, Chrome’s speech input feature is only available for English.

While voice search and visual search are useful, the most impressive search feature launched by Google today is Instant Pages. The new feature only works in Chrome 13+ (available in Canary/Dev Channel and soon in beta), but it will radically improve your search experience. Chrome prerenders the top search result if it’s likely that you will select it, so you no longer have to wait for the page to load. You might remember a feature called “prefetching” that was first supported by Firefox. Prerendering is a lot more powerful than prefetching.

T-Mobile’s newest high-end smartphone, the HTC Sensation 4G, launches June 15 in the carrier’s retail stores for $199 with contract. The Sensation 4G is T-Mobile’s first phone to use both a dual-core Snapdragon chip from Qualcomm and a 960 x 540 high-resolution screen. I’ve been using the Google Android 2.3.3 handset for nearly two weeks as my primary phone to see how this hardware combination pairs with HTC’s newest user interface software, called Sense 3.0.
