The best thing about owning a mobile device is the mobility it
provides; the worst thing is that being mobile raises the chances of you
losing your devices in unimaginable ways. In circumstances where you
actually lose a device, there are many third-party apps that can be used to track lost or stolen devices, but there are also dedicated tools for iOS and Android users.
For iOS devices, owners can track their iPhone, iPad or Mac with the Find my iPhone app. For Android users, the lesser-known equivalent is the Android Device Manager. Android Device Manager or ADM has been available in the Play Store since December 2013. In newer Android devices, ADM is pre-installed into your device.
We’re going to take a look at the features and functions of ADM that every Android user should know:
On the mobile app, sign in via Guest Mode and enter your Google Account details to track the location of the lost device.
You can check the current location of your Android device without refreshing the page or signing in again. Click on the location icon button on the right to see the location of your device.
To bypass the lock screen, choose the Set up Lock & Erase option.
On some phones, the options are already split to a separate Lock option and an Erase option.
Click on Lock and enter your new password, repeat the password to confirm. This can help minimize someone else intruding into your contact list, emails, photo gallery, messaging apps and other important information.
You can add an optional recovery message as well. This is a message that is directed to anyone who may have stumbled upon your phone so be constructive with the message in the hopes that your device will be returned to you.
You can also give an alternative contact number here. A button will appear on the lock screen. Tapping that button will authorize the phone to call you.
This option will confirm for you whether device did ring or did not. If you are at the location near your missing phone, this could alert to you or a passerby of your phone’s location. The device will ring for 5 minutes.
Just choose the Erase option, next to the Lock option. This effectively erases all your data and settings on your device. If the device is offline, the factory reset will be performed as soon as the device is online.
Note that once all data is erased successfully, ADM is no longer available for your Android device.
