  • Mobile device application rating
    Patent number: 9420029
    Abstract: A system includes a ratings server that receives the list of top applications from a source external to the ratings server and selects at least a subset of the top applications based at least in part on a rank of each of the top applications in the list. The system further includes a test server that tests at least one characteristic of each of the subset of top applications selected by the ratings server and outputs a rating representing the at least one characteristic. The ratings server determines a behavior of each of the subset of top applications based on the rating and publishes the behavior of the subset of top applications for access by a user over a communication network.
    Type: Grant

  • Application idle current drain measurement
    Patent number: 9285857
    Abstract: A device may identify an exhibited idle mode current draw according to test results representative of measured current usage associated with execution of an application under test on a test mobile device in communication with a live communications network of a network service provider; determine a battery consumption rating associated with the application under test according to the idle mode current draw and predetermined rating criteria; and update a listing of application ratings based on the determined battery consumption rating of the application under test.
