Although I’m sure the app I would
invent has already been invented in some fashion, I feel that it would solve a
few problems for a lot of people. The app is called Phonedar, which will allow
you to locate your phone wherever it is, by accessing this app either through
another phone or through an internet site.
Everyone loses their phone and
everyone resorts to the same few ways of finding them. You check the last place
you remember it being, sure. But we know one of the most reliable ways to find
our phones is to just use another phone to call it. If you are anywhere near a
computer, you can use the apps website to call your phone for you so you can
hear and locate your phone.
But imagine you’re at school, work.
Do you put your phone on vibrate? Or how about when you’re in church? You
probably just silence your phone. If you lose your phone then, how are you
going to call it and locate it? With the use of the web site or the Phonedar
app on another smartphone, you are able to remotely turn off the silence mode
on your phone and activate your ringtone.
With the Phonedar you may also use
GPS to remotely track your phones physical location to further help you find
it. Maybe you left it at a friends’ house, or the grocery store.
Of course, to prevent the misuse of
an app that could compromise a persons’ safety (GPS finder) the app would need
you to create an account and would be password protected so that only you and
people you choose and trust could access any of the features of Phonedar.
