How to track and wipe Android phone with Remote Phone Lock & Track Application

Free Android tracking app

Remote Phone Lock&Track is a very complete all round free Android security app that lets you track where your phone is at all times (using Wifi and GPS), this can be your own phone if it is lost or stolen or your partner or children’s phone to know where they are, in order to use the tracking capabilities you will need to install a second app, also free, called Phone Location Viewer.

After installing the Remote Lock&Track app the first thing you should do is to password protect it to make sure that nobody can change the settings, if anyone enters a password the app will show a fake SMS application hiding its tracking capabilities (paid for feature), be aware that tracking someone down without their knowledge is illegal nearly everywhere.

If your Android phone goes missing you can send it a predefined SMS command to either locate where the phone is, securely wipe Android internal memory, or just wipe the phone SD memory card data. You can limit the number of times someone attempts to guess the password to unlock the phone, once they have failed the password a determined number of times Android will wipe itself. The English interface of this app is functional but crowded with bulky orthographic mistakes.
