How to find your iPhone thief ?

Some days are just bad days. After spending thousands of rupees on your flaunt-worthy smartphone or tablet, one careless mistake could be enough to be all it takes for a thief to be on his way with your prized possession. But, thanks to the tech already embedded in you device—be it you camera, GPS chip or location-aware WiFi capabilities – you can not only locate your phone, but capture a photo of your thief in an effort to get it back. No insurance fee is involved.

With platform-independent software like Prey, this is now a real world scenario. Prey works on iOS. Android and soon on windows Phone 8. Prey works by talking photos using your phone’s front facing camera, and uploading them to a Dropbox account, mailing them over, or sending it via a message. Alone with this, it provides extensive location-based support where you can track your phone whenever it connects to a mobile network or WiFi connection. All of this also comes with support for making the app and service completely hidden in the device, so that the thief cant tell immediately if you have that kind of protection.

Prey is great, and works well on the field. And its free. Once you trackyour phone and have those photos, you can ask the police to track person in question, and have them retrieve your phone.  Go to preyproject.com
