Today our mobile phone accompanies us wherever we go. It has become an indispensable element of our day to day as we use it for many things such as making calls, photographs, videos, downloading applications ....

This can be a great advantage since we have access to a number of things from a single device, but we must take into account all those data that we share with the Phone App.
