❐ About Lookout Lost Phone Tracker Plan B
Lookout Plan B is your last resort to find your missing phone. Lookout Plan B is the first and only 'find my phone' app on the market that helps you find your lost your phone without being installed beforehand. (Note: Plan B only works with 2.0 - 2.3 versions of Android).
✰ “Saved me $600! Found my lost phone!”
✰ “Great app! I lost my phone and it was tracked in a matter of minutes!!!”
✰ “I thought those reviews were fake but it actually worked! I found my lost phone!!!”
Using Plan B is simple, but requires access to the Android Market website and your Google account. (If you have an Android phone, you already have a Google account.) Follow these easy steps to use Plan B to locate your lost phone:
① Install Plan B from the Android Market website (https://market.android.com/details?id=com.lookout.labs.planb) to the phone that you are trying to find
② Plan B will start automatically and send your phone’s location to your Gmail address
③ To locate again after 10 minutes, borrow a friend’s phone and text the word “locate” to your lost phone
After you install it, Plan B will start locating your phone using cell towers and GPS. On some phones, Plan B can switch GPS on automatically. Your location will keep updating for 10 minutes, and you will get an email each time it is located, whether the phone is moving or standing still. You can start the process again by texting “locate” to your number from any other phone. In order to locate your phone, we send you a text via SMS, so standard message rates apply.
Technical Details:
➠ You'll get one email message when Plan B starts, and up to 5 other messages as it refines your phone's location or tracks it as it moves.
➠ Each location email will include an accuracy rating in meters.
➠ Plan B will attempt to launch as soon as it downloads, but in some cases you will need to send an SMS to get it started.
Note that your location is only sent to the Gmail address that is already associated with your phone; nobody else can access your location using Plan B. U.S. Users: If a data connection is not available, Plan B will use mobile-originated SMS messages to send your location to your email address. Regular SMS rates may apply.
