After Removal By Apple, Privacy App Clueful Returns Via The Web

clueful home pageBack in May, security company Bitdefender launched Clueful, an iPhone app that looked at the other apps on your phone and identified what they were doing with your data. However, according to Bitdefender,Apple removed the app from the App Store in late June without an explanation.Today, Clueful has relaunched ... but not on iOS. Instead, it's now a website where users can search for different apps and get basic facts like which ones are accessing your location, tracking your in-app usage, and reading your address book. For example, one of the apps that I use the most on my iPhone is Routesy, so I can look it up on the Clueful sit and see that it can display ads and track my location, while also encrypting my data. (Basically, nothing to worry about which is good to know.)
