Content Provider Helper vs Man Man
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
Content Provider Helper
This helper is a frontend to query installed content providers. Android's content providers are similar to database tables.: They have a name (aka "content:" uri), columns and they can be queried similar to SQL. Android uses content-providers as API to manage global accessable data (i.e. images, address book, text messages, ...). Forked from jenzz-s ContentProviderHelper which is not maintained anymore. App permissions are set generously to provide maximum compatibility.
Man Man
