Market Helper Android App

add-on for another application

This application is an add-on for apps created by JRummy Apps Inc. The application does not put an application icon in your application drawer. Please read the description below:

This application only has one purpose - it uses the unofficial android market api to get info about other apps that are on the Google Play Store. It can get info about an app's description, category, price, etc. on the Google Play Store. The info is used in other apps (like ROM Toolbox or Ultimate Backup) to create application groups or show you additional information about one of your installed apps.

The reason this is a separate application is because of the permissions it requires. This application is open source, which means you can know exactly what the application does. The permissions to your accounts is only used to generate a token used in the Android Market API. This is explained here: code.google.com/p/android-market-api/wiki/WithAndroid

We didn't want to just add those permissions to the main app. This same API is used by apps like Titanium Backup. We just made this a separate application so users won't complain so much about a permission being added :P
