Stolen Mobile Phones

Recently, crime rates have been on the rise. Every hour that passes seems to bring a new theft. It's a challenging time to feel at ease about the security of your phone. You need a tool that can help you locate your stolen phone, so you can try whatever luck remains before saying a final goodbye to your beloved device.

With the help of technology and three apps, you can either save your phone or at least block or disable it so that it can never be used again.

There are mobile apps like Find My iPhone for iPhones and Android Lost for Android phones. With these apps, you can track your device, lock it, or even delete all your data. The Android Lost app can even send you the thief’s number once they insert their SIM card into your phone.

The best apps in case your phone gets stolen are:

Prey
Available for Android and computers (Apple and Windows). When your device is stolen, you can track it through wireless networks, and even use the camera to see the thief's face. It’s free, with a paid option for more features or if you need to track more than one device.

LockItTight
Works on Android devices and Windows. It can take snapshots of the device’s screen so you can know exactly what the person who stole your device is doing.

StealthGenie
This is surveillance software that works on almost all mobile phones. It's undetectable and collects data on calls, messages, and other activities, which it sends to a secure account. It also supports location tracking, data deletion in case of theft, and alerts you if someone tries to use the stolen phone with another number. However, this app is paid.
