Knowhow Mobile Protector

Safeguard your device from theft or data loss.

Knowhow Mobile Protector is a security/utility application that is designed to safeguard users from theft or data loss in the event of their device being lost/stolen and to help Good Samaritans return lost devices easily. The functionality includes: In the case of loss/theft, the user can go to website and initiate a scream alarm on the device, locate it and view images taken by the device. When the device is in lost/stolen mode, notifications are intermittently displayed on screen encouraging the Finder to return it to its rightful owner. Notifications – in the case that an honest person finds the device, we provide on-screen notifications with a number to dial and a unique identifier for the device to help the finder report it as found through our dedicated 24/7 support centre. The app also provides an onscreen form to allow the finder send details of where the phone or tablet has been found through the device itself The app will also take a picture when in lost/stolen mode. This image is then displayed online in the owners secure account on our website. When taken, the image is also displayed onscreen to deter thieves and encourage the finder to return it to its rightful owner. This captured image can be a valuable resource for the Owner to help identify where the iPhone is or who may have it. When the device has been reported as lost/stolen by the owner (and if the owner has agreed to allow location tracking), the app will send updates of the location if there is a significant change in the location. The owner can also at any time request a location through their secure online account.
