Top 12 Android Apps to Turn Your Smartphone into a Hacking Device.

There are apps out there that are tools to help you hack. This is sometimes in a real sense and sometimes a side effect. For example, a fire axe is used to break through doors, but can also be used to break open skulls. That is why you may find some of these apps on app marketplaces--because they have a legitimate use too. The writer of this article and the webmaster of this site are not responsible for what you do with this information, nor can we guarantee the safety or success of these apps. You use, download and/or install them at your own risk.
