Overview: Wheres My Droid is an useful app that will help you out to find your phone when lost
This is the donate version of Wheres My Droid. It includes the same features than the free version. It's just a donation to support the developer to keep it up. You'll need to remove the free app first, and then download and install this one.
Since we don't have phones anymore, but mini-computers in our pockets, losing them it's a drama. There are coming up thousand of security apps: backups, geolocation, apps lock, and many more. This is one of the most interesting we've tried regarding device losing.
It works this way: you have to set an "attention word". When you lose your device, the only thing you have to do is send a SMS with the attention word to enable the sound (if it's disabled), and make it ringing. Regarding GPS, you have to set also an attention word but it doesn't work if the GPS wasn't enabled before losing the device. That's a flaw since if we want
to use this system we need to keep the GPS enabled the whole day. It would be better that the attention word could enable the GPS.
This is the basic performance. However, there are lots preferences to set to your whim: ring/vibrate when lost, use white noise siren, ring for 30s/60s/5min, set a passcode for the app, and much more.
Wheres My Droid has been developed by alienmanfc6, an emerging developer who's reaching great success specially to this app. He has released another ones on the Android market though.
This is an app that you won't use everyday (and we hope you won't need to use it never). But you will love having it when you're in a hurry and you don't find your phone. Useful.
