[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 85179, post: 876997"] First: anti-theft doesn't work. Because the thief only need to shutdown your device and doesn't care about apps at all. So you only can secure your device against unwanted login which mean secure password, encrypted phone, sim pin, hide (important or all) notification from locked phone and: You can use apps to track your phone as last hope. That's possible with for example PhoneTrack from F-Droid which use Nextcloud as Backend and answer against specific SMS. The app Finder from F-Droid do that do but without real-time location tracking to Nextcloud. Also the apps WaveUp and Private Lock can lock your phone based on different sensors [/QUOTE]
