Data can include not just call history or text messages but, as mobile phones become more smart, it can also include internet web pages, chat data, social media files and other application data. In this paper we present an open-source toolkit has been developed to improve workflow for forensic analysts and to aid Android OS mobile phone forensics. This toolkit has been designed to automatically extract and handle all data extracted from the devices so that vital intelligence can be searched and identified quickly, accurately and efficiently.
