How Google Can Help You Find your Misplaced Phone

in #googleapps7 years ago

How many Google apps you have on your phone. I am talking about those apps which don't come as pre-installed on your phone?
Let's see if you and I have some of those in common:
Play Games, Photos, Hangouts, Play Movies, Play Music, Drive, Youtube, Mapps and Google app.

A few days back, I was just browsing the Play store when I discovered few apps of Google which I never knew about before.The number of such apps is quite a few, but one app really caught my eyes, and I thought of sharing with you as well.

1.Find My Device

Are you one of those guys (or me) who leaves his phone here and there and later have a hard time to find it? I keep doing it all the time.That's why I have mentioned this app as Number 1 on my List- Find My Device
Let me show you how this works...Let say you have misplaced your phone somewhere in your home only.But you have no idea where it is.Assume the app "Find My Device" in installed on your phone. Screenshot_2017-11-10-19-31-13-266.jpeg

So How the app will help You?

Open this link on any other phone or laptop, desktop ....whatever.

It will ask you to sign in to get access to your phone. Once you sign it, you will have the following options:

  1. Play Sound: It will play your mobile ringtone (even it is silent) so that you can locate it.

  2. Lock your phone, and you can set a message remotely for someone who finds it and let him/her know that how they can reach out to you in an alternative number.

  3. Erase- The worst case scenario...You will be able to erase all the data from your phone...This option should only be used if there is no chchance of finding or retrieving your phone at all.Let's hope you don't have to use this option at all.
