Onavo Extend Data Savings is a data-saving app designed to optimize your Android device's data usage and storage.

Optimizing Data Usage

Onavo Extend Data Savings is an Android application geared towards managing and reducing the usage of data on your device. The primary objective of this app is to ensure you utilize your internet data plan effectively, keeping you from depleting your 3G connectivity unexpectedly. This app does not perform any extraordinary functions; its main role is to save your browsing information. This means when you revisit a website, the information doesn't need to be completely downloaded again. Instead, the data is fetched from your device's memory, reducing the need for excessive data usage.

VPN Connectivity

Another significant feature of the Onavo Extend Data Savings app is its connection through a VPN network. This feature allows for data compression before downloading, which means the data occupies less space on your device and uses less of your data plan. This feature makes the app particularly useful for users with limited data plans but ample device storage.

Memory Management

While Onavo Extend Data Savings does prove advantageous in terms of data savings, it does require a significant amount of memory on your device. However, the app allows users to manage its memory usage, enabling them to ensure some free space remains on their device. This means that while the app may require a considerable amount of storage, it can be managed to avoid completely occupying your device's memory.

Onavo Extend Data Savings is an effective tool for those with restricted data plans but plenty of device storage. It optimizes data usage, manages storage efficiently, and provides an extra layer of data compression through its VPN network connectivity.

  • Effective data usage management

Potentially dangerous permissions

  • READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: Allows an application to read from external storage.
  • READ_PHONE_STATE: Allows read only access to phone state, including the phone number of the device, current cellular network information, the status of any ongoing calls, and a list of any PhoneAccounts registered on the device.
  • WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: Allows an application to write to external storage.

Other permissions

  • ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE: Allows applications to access information about networks.
  • ACCESS_WIFI_STATE: Allows applications to access information about Wi-Fi networks.
  • INTERNET: Allows applications to open network sockets.
  • RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED: Allows an application to receive the ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED that is broadcast after the system finishes booting. If you don't request this permission, you will not receive the broadcast at that time. Though holding this permission does not have any security implications, it can have a negative impact on the user experience by increasing the amount of time it takes the system to start and allowing applications to have themselves running without the user being aware of them. As such, you must explicitly declare your use of this facility to make that visible to the user.
  • VIBRATE: Allows access to the vibrator.
