There have been many independent developers who’ve created apps designed to help users find lost phones or, at the very least, to wipe them remotely. Many of those apps required root access to work properly (and to avoid being removed through a malicious wipe), so they never became mainstream. While some of these apps still exist in one form or another, big smartphone manufacturers have developed their own tracking apps.
Samsung leads the Android pack with its Find My Mobile service providing a few handy options in case of a lost or stolen device. But how does Find My Mobile work, and how can it be activated? See how in the linked article below.
The first thing one should always do with any new phone, is to spend a few minutes fully configuring its find service. Also remember to test that you can actually find it through the web service, as sometimes that requires some initial configuration too.
