Phone Security App 3.2.0

The Phone Security App presents a robust anti-theft solution characterized by a clean design and straightforward functionality. Utilizing the built-in sensors of the device, it effectively alerts users to potential theft scenarios.

Motion Detection Mode

• Employs accelerometer sensors to monitor movement
• Features sensitivity control for movement thresholds
• Allows for one-touch activation

Pickpocket Mode

• Capitalizes on the proximity sensor to determine if the device has been removed from a pocket or bag
• Offers configurable proximity distance in centimeters, where supported
• Sounds an alarm when the device is taken from its location

Please note that this mode may not function optimally with cases or flip covers that obstruct the proximity sensor. Additionally, some devices may only provide near and far measurements for the proximity sensor.

Charger Mode

Alarm Features
