Currently, a large part of the population has a cell phone and always chooses to use security features, whether they are passwords, fingerprints, patterns, PINs or Face ID, making it impossible for anyone else to use it.
One of the concerns with cell phones is in case of loss, theft or robbery, in addition, some parents are concerned about their children's safety and feel the need to track that cell phone.
Thinking about some of these hypotheses, cell phone tracking applications were created.
There are completely free apps and these are available for download from the Apple Store or Play Store.
Below you will find a complete list of these applications:
Whistle Me
Whistle Me is one of these applications and is a perfect option for those who use the Android operating system, often forget where they left their device and need to locate it quickly.
Its extremely functional method allows the cell phone to emit a sound when the owner whistles.
The application provides options for you to choose the type of sound and how long it will play in the notification.
The “detection level” option in the application allows the device to detect a series of repeated whistles, which must be long and loud.
KidsControl
