Anti

Android Police coverage: Zimperium Finally Releases 'Anti' For Android, Allows You To Use Penetration Testing Tools On The Go

** Root Required **

The days where penetration testers carry around laptops with them to test the security of networks seem to be numbered, with Zimperium's 'Anti' bringing a lot of those tools over from the PC to Android smartphones. It's been a long time coming, but Anti is now available to download to your phone for free from the Zimperium website. You will have to install 'AntiCredit' from the Android Market in order to actually use the application effectively by buying credits.

Update: The AntiCredit app is currently MIA from the Market, and it's not entirely clear what happened. It's possible that the app will now allow buying credits directly.

Update #2: The download page is finally open to everyone and not just private beta testers.

Weddar

Weddar is the first people powered weather service in the world. In Weddar you have real people reporting on how the weather feels, not machines, bringing a personal touch to weather services.

Instead of the usual broad and generic “New York, 93º f, 73% humidity, NE light wind” information that traditional weather apps give you, in Weddar someone somewhere in Central Park will tell you that the weather “Feels Perfect”, while another one near the river will tell you that it “Feels Good but windy”. Because weather conditions really are different within the same city. And you can also contribute location-based weather reports from where you are, just by clicking on one of the nine color clouds.

AT&T DriveMode

The AT&T DriveMode App is designed to help you curb the urge to text and drive by allowing you to temporarily disable some of the features of your mobile device so you stay focused on the road. When the app is turned on, notification sounds for incoming texts, emails and phone calls are silenced and those who are trying to reach you will receive an auto reply message letting them know you're on the road and will get back to them when it's safe.

When your phone is in DriveMode, text messages and emails cannot be sent or received; however, you do have the flexibility to make and receive calls to/from up to five (5) people. Plus you're always able to call 911. Additionally, you can access one "music" app and one "navigation" app of your choosing.

When you've arrived safely to your destination, you simply turn the app "off" to resume the mobile conversation and restore all features of your phone. It's that simple! Remember, when it comes to texting and driving...it can wait. AT&T DriveMode is free to AT&T customers only and requires a compatible device.
