You’ve lost your phone - argh! Thank goodness for all those Locate My Phone apps - yay!
Except you forgot to download any of those - argh! Thank goodness for Plan B - yay! Because
the Android Market lets you push apps to your phone that you download from your desktop
computer without the need for syncing, all is not lost post-phone stealing incident.
Once you’ve downloaded this app on your computer, it’ll automatically start on your
phone, and send a location email to the Gmail account you have linked to your account. It’ll
send an email each time it’s found, up to 5 in 10 minutes, and you can start the process
again by borrowing someone’s phone and texting your own phone with the word ‘Locate’
to your number. It’s pretty smart stuff, and might be a life saver for someone. Having
said that, since you’re watching this video, maybe take the next two minutes to download
a less last resort style phone locater.
