Motion Detection Mode
• Utilizes the accelerometer sensors on your device to monitor for movement
• Sensitivity control for movement threshold

Pickpocket Mode
• Utilizes your device's proximity sensor to determine if your device has been removed from your pocket or bag/purse
• Configurable proximity distance in centimeters for devices that support this
• Alarm sounds when device has been removed from pocket or bag
Please note that this mode will not work properly if you use a case or flip cover on your phone that blocks the proximity sensor. Also note that some devices only support a near and far measurement for the proximity sensor.

Good security often consists of multiple layers. This app attempts to help secure your phone at a physical level. If a potential thief tries to take your phone, then they will be greeted with a loud alarm of your choosing. Usually a blaring alarm is enough of a deterrent to prevent theft in a public or private setting.

Use Cases
• Leaving phone on the sideline when playing pickup basketball
• Setting phone down when working out at the gym
• Placing phone in your pocket walking through crowded areas
• Setting phone in your purse when walking around the grocery store
• Leaving phone on the side when riding a roller coaster
• Putting phone in a bag on the ground while watching a show
• Leaving phone on your desk at work when you use the bathroom
• Charging your device in the airport
• Pranking someone you know with a personalized audio clip when they take your device
