Save My Ass – Clear Your Call & SMS History
November 9th, 2009 | by Ozgur Cem Sen |
After getting a few very interesting emails, I decided that I should provide a bit of a historical and informal insight to those who might be curious about what that “Save My Ass” may be.
SaveMyAss (Save My Ass) a convenient way to clear the Call and/or the SMS records on the Android based phones. The delete (or purge) process runs automatically upon the app launch without further user intervention. The app either deletes a preset number of messages set in the preferences, or by age (i.e. last 10 min, last 2 hours etc.).
Why did I build this app? Just because. *this is the easy answer (i could’ve said, just for shits and giggles
)
Why did I build this app? Just because, I thought it would be an interesting challenge. I worked extensively with Android Messaging app and SMS internals during the development of “Txtract – SMS Backup for Android“, “Save My Ass” would be the icing on the cake in terms gaining more expertise on Android.
Why did I build this app? About five months ago, I was about to get a ticket because a polica officer thought that I was on the phone while driving. I swear, I was not on the phone, or was not doing anything on my phone. I was pulled over, and I had to show the officer my call and message history to convince him that he stopped me for no reason. That incident was indeed the spark that made “Save My Ass” built. I don’t want to give anyone any ideas about how they may use the application. The rest is up to the users’ imagination
About the “Save My Ass” name; it’s supposed to be just funny and provocative. Nothing more, nothing less. I can only hope that no one will find the name offensive.
