The researchers at inCompass would like to know what television programs, films, videos, books, magazines, video games, music, new papers and websites, and applications you have used, if any.

How InCompass and MediaCell function?
Shaping for the UK Media
Both the InCompass and MediaCell+ applications collect data on current TV, radio, and internet usage in the UK, including the devices used for these activities. This data is extremely important as it shows how UK media consumption has progressed and is ever-evolving. In the long run, the data obtained will be of great importance in shaping the future direction of TV, radio, music platforms, and the internet in the country.
MediaCell+ App for Smartphones
MediaCell+ application that comes with inCompass is an app that can be installed on your smartphone that works covertly. Even though it won’t disrupt your phone’s performance, maybe it will affect the battery life. Via a VPN connection, the app keeps tabs on the apps and websites you accessed, in addition to audio from TV programs or radio broadcasts. Nevertheless, the data are depersonalized and summarized in accordance with the privacy framework provided subsequently.
InCompass App for all Other Devices
InCompass application can be used by those who do not have a smartphone as well as they consider using different devices. It can be installed on computers, laptops or tablets for monitoring computer usage. Besides the viewing history of the sites and apps on these devices, it doesn’t gather information on in-app actions like messaging and banking data in particular.
