Prevent Mobile Apps Hacking In-App Values

Most of users are not smart enough. Most of them using some hacking apps and searchs some values in memory and change.

Using some tricks will be effective for most users.

• Use fake variables
• Use temp modified variables

Sample:

 public int[] XValue = new int[200];
 public int CValue = 0;

These variables keep coins. CValue is real variable.

When coins increase use ApplyCoins method.

public void ApplyCoins(int pCoins)
        {
            CValue += pCoins * 8;
            for (int i = 0; i < 200; i++)
                XValue[i] = CValue;
            for (int i = 50; i < 100; i++)
                XValue[i] = CValue / 8;
        }

Get the real coins value.

 public int GetCoins()
        {
            return CValue / 8;
        }

When user search the coins value lots of fake variables will be listed.

This is not best way for prevent hacking but most of user will be eliminated.
