The device comes with panic alerts, places notification, tamper alert and other features. This app is now called Find My Device, and our first step is recommending you download it today , not after a phone gets stolen. There has been quite some buzz about government agencies spying on calls and messages. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. No, there isn't really. These features are really necessary to protect your personal data present inside your Galaxy S8 if it is lost. Most of the services only work if your phone is connected to the internet.
How can I set this up? I've heard about glimpse but that doesn't really sound like the thing i'm after, as far as I understand it sends a text or email asking if you want to share your location. Not handy if i'm driving. I just want a simple app that doesn't use too much battery and lets my wife occasionally see where I am on her iphone.
When i read this title I thought this was a thread about how iPhones are better at tracking than Android lol. As for your question, I'm not too familiar with any apps that would do this well. Apple isn't the type of software to play nicely with Android with something like that, unfortunately.
I am using Zenly for this purpose. Works great and does not suck to much of my battery.
Google maps will do this. The location sharing just got pushed to the iphone version recently as before it only worked on android.
It will tell your gps data. I dont know why your family would like to track you tho. Aug 20, Male Student Goa, India.
I've never really gone through this, but I assume that if he did the factory reset, your Google account will be logged, and all your settings will be removed at least that's what happened to me on my ultra old phone. So, unfortunately Find My Device will be disabled while he logs in. But I'm not sure.
Still you can try at myaccount. This may work and is worth a try. Then he won't be able to do much with your phone Unless you rooted it.
He, probably knows that it won't work, and might have never tried resetting it. If he didn't know that and he did a reset, he will be asked to login to YOUR Google account to continue using it. There is also a possibility that the phone was never stolen Nov 24, 5 0 Thanks, is there anyway to prevent the factory reset of an adroid device?
No, there isn't really. The idea behind the factory reset protection feature is to deter theft by making the phone useless if you reset it.
