Tracker for AndroidLost BETA
This is a BETA version and there will most likely be bugs
- if you are not ready for testing new software please wait until we remove the BETA sign.
Most tracker apps will give you a point on a map where your phone currently is.
But imagine you have lost it in an office building or a mall where there is no GPS signal. Then the map will just show you an inaccurate position within several 100 meters where there can be hundreds of people with phones.
This tracking app tries to solve this problem by also scanning the WIFI networks and nearby bluetooth devices.
When the tracking app can see a WIFI network that the lost phone can also see you know that you are probably within 50 meters of your phone. The lost phone also scans the bluetooth devices nearby. And when the tracking app can see the same devices you know you are within 20 meters. Finally the tracker app makes itself discoverable and when the lost phone can see the tracking phone you are within 10 meters of your lost phone. And then you can start the alarm from the tracking app.
As with AndroidLost your password is stored at google and will not be sent to any of my servers.
Please note that this is the very first version of the tracking service so it may contain bugs. And it will most likely use a some power since it searches for GPS, network, WIFIs and bluetooth devices every 10 seconds.

Not working for Androidloat version above 3
Although in its infancy this app uses a very clever method of locating your device if GPS locating is unavailable. It uses WiF & Bluetooth to home in and locate your device. Although lacking in features and a bit buggy this app shows great potential. Giving the app the ability to send SMS commands to the lost device would be a great advancement as having to type the commands by hand is time consuming and wastes precious time if your device has just been lifted. Thanks to the Dev for all their hard work :-)
As soon as a person who steals the phone immediately switches it off !! Its just a simple phenomenon that everybody does. Moreover there are many technologies which can change imei number it self. So erasing the data of lost phone is not at all an issue. Just for the sake of satisfaction we should install this app.
Find the device is spot on 95% of the time otherwise this is a useful app. I think it is time to remove the beta sign because this works also need an update
This app is not as complete as the web interface, but it does the most important set of things.
This works really well but it turns the Bluetooth on both persons phone but doesnt turn it off. it needs to be able to turn it on and off. Also I would love to see a satellite view added it does make it easier to locate your phone if you can tell what building its in.
Doesnt work on nexus at all..app screen is blinking .crap
Simple design that does exactly what is needed without unnecessary clutter.
No need to have a pop up. Keep it in background will be nice
I think this is a brilliant app, I've tried it on several occasions, and, in my environment, it has worked 100%, Exceptional work bud.
Its doesn't work
Keep improving this app. It's got potential!
Without a doubt, second to none.
