Cerberus:- Find your lost phone.


Cerberus is a complete anti-theft
application, the best protection you
can get to recover your misplaced,
lost or stolen Android device. This is
a free trial for one week, then you
can buy a lifetime license for a small
price (2.99€) from within the
application: no monthly or yearly
fees, just a one-time payment.
License is associated to your
Cerberus account, if you have
multiple devices you can use all of
them (up to 5) with the same
account.
It has three ways to protect your
device:
- Remote control through the
website www.cerberusapp.com
- Remote control via text messages
- SIM Checker (for devices that have
a SIM card): you will automatically
receive alerts if someone uses your
phone with an unauthorized SIM
card
Remote control allows you to perform
many operations on your device,
like:
- Locate and track it
- Start a loud alarm, even if the
device is set to silent mode
- Wipe the internal memory and the
SD card
- Hide Cerberus from the app drawer
- Lock the device with a code
- Record audio from the microphone
- Get a list of last calls sent and
received
- Get information about network and
operator the device is connected to
- And much more!
Cerberus automatically enables GPS
if it is off when you try to localize
your device (only on Android < 2.3.3)
and you can protect it from
unauthorized uninstalling - more
info in the app configuration.
The app works even if the device
does not have an internet
connection thanks to remote control
by sms messages. Also, the SIM
Checker feature allows you to know
the new number to send texts to, if
the SIM card is changed. Texts
received and sent for Cerberus
remote control will not start any
notification and will not appear in
the Messages application.
Cerberus does not drain the battery
because there is no background
service running: it will activate only
if there is a remote control request
and will stop afterwards.
More features for rooted devices:
complete uninstall protection (a
thief will be able to delete Cerberus
only by flashing another ROM), GPS
auto-enabling even on Android >
2.3.3. More info on the website in
the Help section.
