Abstract
Mobile applications frequently access personal information to meet user or business requirements. Developers are, in turn, often required to align their code with a privacy policy or to create the privacy requirements to specify the collection and use of personal information. However, it is challenging for a regular programmer to create code complying with a privacy policy. To aid app developers in such tasks, we have created PoliDroid-AS, an Android Studio plugin for the detection of code-policy misalignments and the generation of privacy specifications.
