I am looking for an open source app similar to Apple’s “Find My”, the intention is to give it root permissions and be able to monitor its location from another device and even be able to do a factory reset remotely in case of theft.
Is there an app that can be used for this purpose? Any help would be appreciated!
You could give https://f-droid.org/packages/de.nulide.findmydevice/ a try
Nice to have this in an app.
You can also reproduce this with apps like Macrodroid or Tasker too.
Thanks! I’ve been using it for the last 2 days and it’s just what I needed!
There used to be an app called aegis that did something like this, it used texts to your phone to trigger stuff. It was made by one of the CyanogenMod devs, I’m not sure if it’s still around… EDIT: the github is here, but it hasn’t been touched in a while lol

Seems like this would be a bad thing from a privacy perspective.
Depends where it sends the data. An encrypted email should be fine
