Signa for Android

Captures app use and website visits continuously on Android devices, producing device-level signals that feed national audience metrics and media ratings. Signa, from IBOPE AUDIENCIAS LTDA, supports invited participants in a market research panel. The tool runs in the background, syncs usage data, encrypts transmissions, offers panelist account controls, and links participation to rewards. Available on Android, it requires specific system permissions to operate.

Delivers device-level media signals used by broadcasters and advertisers

Signa collects automated traces of visited websites and active applications, then aggregates those signals into statistical inputs for media measurement. The app acts as a virtual meter for national audience reporting and feeds data that advertisers and content producers use to analyse consumption patterns. The developer positions it as the official measurement channel tied to Kantar IBOPE Media ratings, which gives the collected telemetry a direct path into industry reporting.

Requires explicit panel registration and elevated system permissions

Signa runs only for registered panelists and needs Android system access to work. Setup includes panelist registration via the account interface and granting accessibility services plus usage access so the tool can detect app activity. Background synchronization transmits usage statistics periodically. Participation links to the developer's reward and incentive workflow, so registration and account management unlock the app's full functionality.

Balances encrypted, anonymized telemetry with incentives and a small device impact

Transmitted research information is secured and anonymized while rewards compensate participation. The app uses secure data encryption for all sent information and does not record private conversations, focusing on media signals and app/web usage. Because it runs continuously, users may notice a minor battery effect. Participant feedback highlights appreciation for incentives alongside concerns about granting extensive system permissions.

To sum up, a suitable panel tool for invited participants who accept trade-offs

Signa is a suitable option for invited panelists who want to contribute to national audience measurement while earning incentives; it asks for ongoing device telemetry and system access, so participation depends on your comfort with continuous monitoring. If you value industry reporting and rewards, it's a direct route into official metrics; if you prefer minimal background software, participation may not match your needs.
