Smart phones are powerful minicomputers characterized by high performance, large memory capacity and enhanced applications that enable various ways of communication. They are widely used for other purposes besides making phone calls, for instance browsing the internet, reading and responding to emails, road navigation, editing documents, video conferencing, playing music, taking videos and photo, to mention but a few.

The problem at hand is that forensic investigators often encounter difficulty in identifying service providers, accounts credentials like username and passwords and cloud data remnants. This can be provided by the seizure and analysis of data contained in smart phones such as Android devices.

the importance of the study in acquisition of sound forensic tools and techniques that will ensure evidence is admissible before a court of law.
