[NTLK] New version of Einstein for Android

[dotline7 at gmail.com]

Hi Folks,

Can Einstein on Android be used as a safe place separated from the "outside" word? Can it be used to stock private information, with intention the data placed there can't be hijacked by Android and send it to how knows where?
