Lockwatch – Thief Catche: Take Photos of Person Who is Entering Wrong Unlock Password
Do you dream of a phone able to take pictures of anyone that enters the wrong unlock password? It’s OK to be suspicious and you shouldn’t dream of that any longer. It is actually possible! To get this feature on your Android handset, you must install an interesting security app that will do the trick. Lockwatch – Thief Catcher is my suggestion for you this time and I invite you to find out more.
The app secretly takes a photo using the front camera when someone tries to unlock your phone with the wrong code. Then, it emails it to you. There is a free version that you could try on, but if you unlock the pro version or $4.99 you get a lot of additional features that can keep your device protected all the time.
To be more precise, the app brings in the feature to detect SIM change and force power off which will send an email to the owner. So, some could say that it is actually a bless! Just note that this app requires an active internet connection on your phone, in order to email the photographs and location to you.
If that’s OK, follow the steps below to configure it.
