Lockwatch information
What is Lockwatch?
Lockwatch helps you locate and recover your lost or stolen phone Lockwatch secretly takes a photo using the front camera when someone enters an incorrect unlock code on your phone. It then emails you a picture of the intruder along with their GPS location, without them knowing. The app has helped recover many lost and stolen phones, and has been featured in several TV and online news stories.
These additional features are instantly available when you upgrade to Lockwatch Premium in the app for a small fee.
Simply open the Lockwatch app, slide to the Premium tab, and click on the upgrade message. sim_card Detect SIM card changes
Sends you an email when a new SIM card is inserted into the phone. The email includes a photo and location, as well as details on the new SIM such as phone number, subscriber ID and network provider (where possible). power_settings_new Send email after power on
If a thief steals your phone, one of the first things they might do is quickly switch it off. Lockwatch can detect if the phone has been switched off whilst still being locked. This will cause Lockwatch to send an alert each time the phone is switched back on, hopefully revealing their hide out. Tip! To avoid getting these emails yourself, make sure you unlock your phone before you power it off. filter_3 Take multiple photos
Takes three photos of the intruder instead of one photo. Each photo is taken roughly one second apart so you get several angles of the person's face. These are all included in the email. mic Record sound clip
Records 20 seconds of high quality sound using the built-in microphone. An MP4 audio file is included in the email. refresh Retry sending emails
If Lockwatch is unable to send the email (e.g. if there is no data connection), it will save the information on the phone and will retry sending it later when a Wi-Fi or mobile data connection is available. ad_units Ad Free
Removes all advertisements from within the app.
