Tracking lost Android Smartphone & Tablet

If you loose your Smartphone or laptop or tablet, then you can remotely track it. Not only you can track it, you can even remotely Lock or Wipe it. Tracking Process is easy for smartphones that are connected with a data connection. but its hard to track a laptop because once you loose it, it may be powered off.

So Do not wait until you have lost your device, there are some features that need to be enables so that tracking process becomes Smooth. So Let us peep in to see how to Track your lost device and what precautions you need to take.





Tracking Android Smartphone & Tablet:

To track Android Smartphone or Tablet we will use Android Device manager, which is an amazing feature to find your stolen smartphones. You need to activate andriod device manager no your device. here is how to do it..
Go to Settings > Then move to Security > Then move to Device Administrators > Android Device Manager > Activate it

After it’s enabled, you can visit the Google Play website, click the gear icon, and select Android Device Manager. You’ll see the location of the device on a map. Unlike Apple’s solution, Android Device Manager will be wiped after a factory reset. You can Ring the Device, Lock it or Erase all the data.

Thief can reset your device and you won’t be able to track it down. Android Device Manager also won’t monitor a complete history of a lost device’s movements. it only fetches the location of the device when you sign in. It discards any location data when you sign out.

App to Track Android Smartphones:
Android Lost allows you to start tracking a device remotely, even if you never set up tracking software ahead of time. I would Recommend you to download this app in your android device. Other tracking solutions offer more powerful features like the ability to take photos with the phone’s camera or listen in on the phone’s surroundings with its microphone.
