iOS/Android Privacy: InAppBrowser.com – see what JavaScript commands get injected through an in-app browser · Felix Krause
Posted by jpluimers on 2022/08/31
Especially on Archive, but also on Android and other mobile operating systems, mobile apps can have their in-app browsers to circumvent the OS provided wrapper around the system browser.
On iOS, the Safari is the only system browser engine whereas on Android you can have other engines too, so less Android applications have in-app browsers.
Most of those in-app browsers are in social media applications that go to great length to keep their users inside a walled garden.
The site [Wayback/Archive] inAppBrowser.com helps checking how severely information is leaked through the in-app browser as those potentially have a lot of control. TikTok is worst capturing all input including credentials like user names and passwords.

appletv – How can I show a read-only version of Google Calendar on Apple TV 4th generation? – Ask Different
Posted by jpluimers on 2020/05/14
Based on [WayBack] appletv – How can I show a read-only version of Google Calendar on Apple TV 4th generation? – Ask Different there is one choice that might work on Apple TV 3rd generation and 4th generation:
- [WayBack] GitHub – steventroughtonsmith/tvOSBrowser: tvOS Web Browser sample project (Private API)
- [WayBack] GitHub – jvanakker/tvOSBrowser: tvOS Web Browser sample project (Private API) : more up to date fork of the first link
This is the only practical solution I dissected from [WayBack] How to surf the web and use Safari on Apple TV – Macworld UK: Here is how to browse the internet and watch web services on your Apple TV.
Installing requires a few steps as described at
- [WayBack] How to install a web browser on Apple TV and
- [WayBack] How to Run Native tvOS Browser on Your Apple TV: If you want to run native tvOS browser on Apple TV, there is a hack developed by a Dutch developer. This hack uses Apple’s private API based on UIWebView class.
Limiting to only Apple TV 4, another solution is also possible:
However the last solution is not a real web browser, so it does not allow a layout I’m using for the calendar, or actually two calendars:
- weekly calendar on the left so my brother sees his detailed activities for the upcoming days
- monthly calendar on the top right for an overview of the past and upcoming weeks
- three weather frames on the bottom right with two weather radars from different sources and a weather overview for the upcoming days
The reason I need this is because my brother is mentally retarded having problems with abstract concepts like relative time and scheduling. Like me he is also easily distracted and not good at repeating tasks. So looking at a schedule at least once a day is tough for him.
He is very good at concrete topics, especially ones he can put to practice right away like “will it rain on my way to work”. That makes him look at this web page in the first place.
Currently this calendar is shown on a monitor by a Raspberry Pi attached to it.
But I might go for the Apple TV 3 route later on.

Improve Android and iOS debug compilation speed – grijjy blog – Set the Debug information option to Limited Debug information
Posted by jpluimers on 2018/04/12
If you develop mobile apps with Delphi, you know it: compiling for Android and iOS is sloooooooooooooow, especially for debug builds. This little tip makes compiling Debug builds much faster……
Set the Debug information option to Limited Debug information
When I read a thing like that, I always think “how come I never thought about that before?” Well done Erik!

How-To: Create a free Apple developer account for sideloading apps | 9to5Mac

Interesting: Starting with Xcode 7, Apple made it possible to sideload apps on the iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV using a free Apple ID. Although a paid developer account is still required to deploy apps to the App…: How-To: Create a free Apple developer account for sideloading apps | 9to5Mac

At #SXSW 2014 this week, Embarcadero Launches Appmethod, A New Multi-Device Development Platform For Native Apps (via: @TechCrunch)
Posted by jpluimers on 2014/03/06
The @appmethod secret.
Wow. Out of the blue, I just read Embarcadero Launches AppMethod, A New Multi-Device Development Platform For Native Apps | TechCrunch. And I’m impressed.
In short:
At SXSW 2014 (which is running now, its agenda has a schedule from March 7th till March 16th), Embarcadero announces appmethod, to be released in beta on March 18th, 2014 for building native cross platform applications. Many have found out you can apply for the beta at www.appmethod.com.
More and more people are bumping into the appmethod link, for instance on FaceBook, on Google Plus, at Delphi Bistro and #Appmethod starting with the @appmethod secret by Joy Ruff.
Below are a few my observations from following all of the above links. Read them, especially the TechCrunch. I expect interesting posts from others to follow really soon now (:.
I’m only a few hours ahead of you readers, but I’m having a positive vibe just for these reasons: Read the rest of this entry »

Android: manually install Google Play Services 4.2.39 so AllCast and others can stream to Chromecast
Posted by jpluimers on 2014/02/09
Over the years, Google Play Services has started to play a much bigger role, arguably more important than the Android version (also making it impossible to fork Android: Neither Microsoft, Nokia, nor anyone else should fork Android. It’s unforkable. | Ars Technica).
This shows again with the publication of the new Google cast SDK with public Chromecast support release last weak (I think the SDK name being broader than Googlecast means there will be much more to come in the feature).
Though most current Android users are still at version 4.1.32 of the Google Play Services, Google is rolling out a 4.2.39 version to enable that SDK. After it has rolled out to enough devices, then the Play Services library version 15 part of the SDK will be released for Android as well (which will complement the existing support for the iOS and Chrome platforms).
The odd thing: it looks like *some* developers already have this SDK, as AllCast already has been updated and it does not work with Google Play Services 4.1.32, but it does work with Google Play Services version 4.2.39. Below I show you how I tested this, and how to manually upgrade your Android device to use Google Play Services 4.2.39. Read the rest of this entry »

Generating complex math visualizations in SVG using C# and ILNumerics – Scott Hanselman
Posted by jpluimers on 2013/12/15
Funny how Generating complex math visualizations in SVG using C# and ILNumerics and MathViz (no, not this MathViz!) look so similar.
I hope the MathViz code becomes public one day.

Posted by jpluimers on 2013/08/27
The Dutch stop of the RAD Studio In Action LIVE! tour is on September 7th.
The venue location is via Holiday Inn Leiden Hotels: Haagse Schouwweg 10, 2332 KG Leiden, The Netherlands.
It is close to the advertised “Amsterdam Netherlands” (about half an hour drive), close to the A44 highway and close enough to public transport. And it is indeed on Saturday September 7, 2013
