Mobile device application analysis

摘要

A mobile telecommunications device 10 runs a plurality of applications 36 installed on the device (for providing services to the device user). Monitoring means 38A monitors the performance of the applications for generating performance data (for each application), and analysing means 38B analyses the performance data (for each application) and to identify characteristics of the applications in dependence thereon. The mobile device may alert a user of the device of the problematic ones of the applications (for example via the GUI of the device). A mobile telecommunications device application performance analysing apparatus 70 may be coupled to the mobile telecommunications network that provides mobile telecommunications services to a plurality of mobile telecommunications devices and may receive the performance data and which includes analysis means 74 for conducting analysis of the performance data to identify characteristics of the applications in dependence thereon.
