Smartphone users express a desire to keep their data private; however, most are unaware that they have limited control over the data collected by their mobile applications. Most are even unaware of what data is being collected. This lack of transparency and control around privacy settings is anti-consumer and users are frequently upset when confronted with the types of information collected by mobile applications. This leads to backlash against mobile application developers damaging relationships with consumers. In order for users to better understand data collected by third party applications, I have created PrivacyTrack, an application designed to inform iOS users of third party applications' data collection and privacy practices. An evaluation of PrivacyTrack by testers shows that users are largely unaware of the type of data that common applications collect. Many users had strong reactions of annoyance to learning this information during the testing phase. The assessment of PrivacyTrack by testers confirmed that it is an informative and easy to use tool.
