GotYa - How to catch someone trying to unlock your phone - Android

if your android device is ever stolen, i would hope you have GotYa installed. it will take a picture of the person attempting to log into your phone and send you that picture along with a gps location for them.

Are you a software consultant? Is your name, Jason Myles, by any chance? And do you have noise-cancelling headphones?

[forrealee]

@Rollersteaam lol nope sorry, thats not me.

[Rollersteaam]

@forrealee Alright, just checking. Thanks. It's just Jason Myles was a victim of Swatting.

[forrealee]

@Rollersteaam haha oh ok. ya I had my GPS accuracy set to very low because i knew it would be shown on this video. so the location shown on the video is accurate to about 1-2 miles haha

Nice review. Though, theres alot people can do with your home address, I wouldn't put it on anymore videos just for your own protection. I basically live on HackForums, and if you google the term "Swatting" you'll understand why. Anywho. yeah, nice review man,

[forrealee]

@OurFalseHero lol thanks. part of the reason i didnt care was the address google maps showed was not accurate. thats why i played it off as more of a joke lol but thanks for the tip

woahh super cool BTW HOW DO YOU DOWNLOAD SOMETHING WITHOUT FOR ADMINS PASS

[forrealee]

@SLeon30 haha wow 3 times?? that sucks. i'm not sure what the difference is between this and the iphone version. but i would think since its the same app, it would be pretty much the same thing

[SLeon30]

Awesome dude, I didn't know of such an app, I'm planning on getting a tab, and here in Costa Rica is pretty bad to have expensive stuff (yeah I've been mugged 3 times last year)

I'm definitly gonna get it... please let us know whats the the diference between that one and paid... and another question... is it for iPhone too?
