With Missing Droid you can easily locate your phone if you left it in the office, lost it, if it was stolen, or otherwise misplaced, and you can protect your information as well and stay connected.
There are two easy ways to use Missing Droid:
1. If a friend has Missing Droid installed, then from their phone click a button to activate Missing Droid on your phone.
2. Get a friend's phone and text yourself to get location/ring phone, etc.
Missing Droid is very easy to use, and it is very configurable, so it will always work how you want it to.

And you don't have to be too careful about your keyword or too secretive, because you can set it up to only allow certain people. That way, it's not so hard to forget. I personally use a period for my keyword, because it's short and easy and it doesn't matter if someone else uses it because I restrict the access.
I'm always working on updating and making it better, so if you have any suggestions or issues, please email me at [email protected]
