Google allows you to locate your smartphone

If you have an Android smartphone and don't know where it is, go to Google to find it. This was announced by Google after introducing a new service called "Find My Phone".

This way, when a person loses their mobile phone and wants to know if they have it somewhere in the house or if they have lost it on the street, they will be able to know where it is in just a few clicks.

Once you log in to the application, a small map appears at the top and locating the device begins. For privacy and security reasons, Google again requests the smartphone's username and password to determine the exact location.

However, several applications such as Android Device Manager or even the famous Apple service of the same name, "Find My Phone", have existed for some time now. The difference between these two services and Google's is that in the first two you can block the terminal in case of theft and in the one that was born now this option is not available, you can only ring the device for five minutes to find it more easily if it is close to us.
