Re: [android-developers] How can I get the reference to the top (or second top, or any one in the task) activity object

I do not think using default Gallery is not secure. I also use default camera intent in the app.
I only need the picture. The picture is not secure: it is in the storage.
So this would not be a problem.

I guess my point is that if you don't control the app, whose to say it
won't steal your data?  Nothing stops it from doing so.  Furthermore,
how are you going to transmit the data so that the gallery app gets it
in a secure way?  The gallery doesn't have any features that allow
encryption or any way to exchange keys.
