5. Applications gives

installed applications. the application.
By Rating, By Downloads,
By Size, By data
uploaded, etc.)

6. Options to detect 7. Get battery level and

corrupted files and to warn the device by a ping
remove it from that sound if it is reached it’s
device. MAX potential.
 SCOPE OF PROJECT

For Desktop Application

8. Make connections with Desktop and send all mobile notifications, call logs, etc. ( Notify user )
9. An Desktop Client that will control all actions of Desktop from Android application.
10. Get all Information about which software's are installed on the Desktop and show it on the Android application.
11. Shows all permissions of that software, RAM usage on PC.
12. Feature to kill the ongoing/running process of PC from the Android application.
13. Options to detect corrupted files and to remove it from that Desktop.
14. Notify battery level of Laptop/Desktop on the mobile. ( if Available )
15. Functionality to download on PC from the Android Application.
16. Restricts the user to access specific features on pc from mobile and notify the actual user ( from Browser, etc ) if actual user
permit then allows otherwise doesn’t allow for Security and privacy. (Basically used for parental care)
