About

Onavo Mobile is the developer of award-winning mobile apps that help its users save, measure and protect their mobile data. Onavo has created three applications- Extend, Count and Protect. Extend is available on both iOS and Android devices and operates in the background, while one uses their phone. It offers suggestions on how to manage one's mobile data more efficiently, saving more data for what the user uses the most. Count is also offered on both iOS and Android devices and offers its users detailed reports on what the data one is using is going towards. Such examples include apps like Facebook,Twitter, Instagram etc. Protect is currently only offered on iOS devices and, as the name suggests, protects a user's information and data when sharing information or browsing the web. The app also helps store important information a user may input online such as bank account information or a username and password.
