    Default Best App for if you lose your phone or it's stolen?


    I was noticing some apps in the market, that allow you to do things, like track GPS location, or different things, like in case you lose you phone, or it's stolen to help retrieve it.

    Was wondering which ones people have tried, and what you think is the best one?

    I am using GPS Tracker, I don't think it will send you a message or anything. As long as the program is active you can track everywhere you've been from an online portal. With gps supposedly a battery eater you might not want it active all of the time. It does work as advertised.

    I would say Mobile Defense.
    Works pretty well and accurate and you can lock your phone if you have the screen lock enabled.
    Also has tons of other features! http://www.cyrket.com/package/com.neevo.mobiledefense
