With the Privacy Friendly Battleship app you can easily play the popular Battleship game on your smartphone. The aim of the game is to sink all the opponent's ships by taking turns "shooting" at the opponent's board.

The game offers two game modes:
- Player vs Computer
- Player vs Player

The player can choose between the playing field sizes 5x5 and 10x10 and place his ships freely. The number of ships can be chosen before the game itself. Ships of sizes 2 (submarines), 3 (destroyers), 4 (cruisers) and 5 (battleships) are possible.

What makes Privacy Friendly Battleship different from other similar apps?

1. No permissions
Privacy Friendly Battleships does not use permissions.
For comparison, the top ten similar apps available on the Google Play Store requires an average of 6.1 permissions (as of November 2017). This includes access to networks, the Internet or location data.

2. No annoying ads
Many other free apps in the Google Play Store display intrusive ads that can also decrease battery life and use up data, among other things.

The app belongs to the group of privacy-friendly apps developed by the SECUSO research group at the Technical University of Darmstadt. More information at: https://secuso.org/pfa
