ANONguard vs PGPAuth
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
ANONguard
ANONguard anonymises the Internet connection. In the process, the IP address of the smartphone is hidden with the help of the AN.ON anonymisation service (https://anon.inf.tu-dresden.de/).
PGPAuth
This app sends GPG-verified requests over the internet to a given server. Currently there are the actions open and close, but request-type will be configurable. The request also includes a timestamp to verify the request is sent by the owner of the gpg-key and is not sent again by someone else. It is used in the ChaosChemnitz hackerspace in Germany to open and close the door without the need of a "real" key. You'll need https://f-droid.org/packages/org.thialfihar.android.apg or https://f-droid.org/packages/org.sufficientlysecure.keychain to sign requests.
