Ever tried to locate a stolen device by just going to the last place you visited?
well cellphones have become one of our top priority now days, not only they cost fortune but some are more valuable in what it carries than the price tag. Pictures or important document can be or cause trouble to you if falls into the wrong hands.
Below is a possible way on how to secure {track} a stolen android or just remotely wipe it to secure your data
Android Device Manager is a Google app that allows you to track and secure your devices remotely. Depending on the permissions you give Android Device Manager in the Google Settings app, you can remotely track your devices, cause them to ring (even if it was put in silent mode), change the lock code, or completely wipe your devices through this handy little app.
New functions to ring or text your missing device have recently been added so that if someone finds your phone, you can get in touch with them and -threaten- convince them to return the device.
It's an app you hope you never need to use, but luck favors the prepared and it's an app that you should always keep in case of emergencies. It's also good if you have siblings/co-workers/kids that like to hide your phone while you're in the bathroom.
