Now if application downloads are allowed and user installs an app that is a malware – the extent of damage would be limited 
to that user session. Once the new user button is pressed the Android based module cleans up the writeable /data and 
/sdcard partitions – thereby removing any existing malware installed by the previous user. 
Future versions of Android are identifying and addressing critical gaps in Android Security - Called Security Enhanced 
Android. Our updates to the Android based module will include these improvements. 
 

Q.  What are the major new features/improvements supported in Jelly Bean 4.3?  

A. The following features/improvements are present:  
 

1.  The ability to support multiple limited/restricted user (a total of eight accounts are supported on the Android module 

including the administrator (owner) account, which cannot be removed, but wiped to remove personally identifying 
information – limited/restricted accounts can be deleted). The administrator/owner may also choose to create limited 
or standard accounts via the Settings app. 

2.  Video processing is improved 
3.  Full CPU speed is available on input touch 
4.  Shortcuts/widgets will automatically rearrange themselves when a new shortcut/widget is being added to one of the 

screens of the launcher 

5.  Notification system is greatly improved with expandable notifications (e.g., notifications that can show action buttons 

allow for limited feedback choices without opening the app) 

6.  Notifications can be disabled on a per app basis 
7.  Support for widgets on the lock screen 
8.  Expanded version of the interface layout and home screen on larger display devices like the P14T2 (e.g., navigation 

keys are centered on the bottom and the notification and quick settings panels along the top left and right corners 
respectively) 

9.  A new default clock app (the digiclock widget is still available) 
10.  A new screen saver system called Daydreams has been added 
11.  Bi-directional text support 

 
Q. 

Where any new system apps added in this release? 

A. Yes, the new apps in this release include: 

 
1.  Cactus Player – plays different types of media with support for fast forward and fast rewind, multiple audio track 

selection at run time, and subtitle and selection settings. 

2.  Camera (will only work with an optionally installed camera and microphone module) – takes pictures and records 

video. 

3.  Ethernet – configure wired connections (in a previous release this app was part of the Settings app, but has been 

decoupled for this release to permit easier configuration). 

4.  FBReader – this app is an eBook reader and supports reading books in the EPUB, FictionBook, HTML, plucker, 

PalmDoc, zTxt, TCR, CHM, RTF, OEB, mobipocket (mobi – no DRM), and plain text formats. 

5.  K-9 Mail – an email program that allows access to email systems of many services, including Google’s Gmail. It 

does not depend on system level email accounts being configured via the Settings app. 

6.  Movie Studio – allows the editing of video files 
7.  Replica Island – a fun, action-based game 
8.  Sound Recorder – an app to record audio on those devices with the optionally installed camera and micropohone. 
9.  Tomdroid  -- a note taking app 
10.  Delete My Account (in a future OTA update) – an app to remove the currently logged on limited/restricted profile 

account that the user can access him/herself. 

 
Q.  

Do you wipe the device after each use?

 

A.  No. There are three ways to wipe the device. First, the device is wiped when the maximum number of user accounts is 
active on the device and a new account is created. In this case, the oldest created accounted is removed (in a future OTA 
update, the oldest accessed account will be removed). Second, the user can access the delete my account app and 
remove their account from the device. Third, the administrator (owner) can  the access the Factory reset option and remove 
all accounts from limited/restricted accounts form the device along with wiping the owner account (the device will be reset to 
its factory original state albeit with any OTA updates applied).
