8. Oreo rational & Characteristics
All apps want to know the contents of your purse & where you are
Changes:
1. All operations which are running in the background must be declared
2. Location will only be provided per app approximately once an hour
9. Overcoming the Oreo
Working with participants
Working with developers
Focusing on place not movements
Ultimately exciting time for psychologists and developers
