CrookCatcher

Protect your smartphone from unauthorized access and potential theft with CrookCatcher – a robust security application that captures a photo of anyone attempting to unlock your device using an incorrect PIN, password, or pattern. This vigilant app not only takes the offender's picture but stealthily sends you their snapshot accompanied by their GPS location and an estimated address, ensuring you have all the necessary details to take action or recover your device.

Utilized worldwide, the app has surpassed 5 million downloads, becoming a go-to tool for phone security. It integrates flawlessly with Android's existing lock screen mechanisms, ensuring a secure and user-friendly experience. Remarkably attentive to preserving your device's battery life, it becomes active only during unauthorized unlock attempts and remains dormant otherwise.

The core functionalities are available for free, including taking pictures, locating your phone, and sending alert emails with relevant information. For users seeking advanced protection, the PRO version offers an impressive array of features such as capturing multiple photos with both front and rear cameras, recording a sound clip, sounding an alarm, displaying a custom message or a decoy home screen for potential thieves, and more.

The platform is always evolving, with innovative experimental features being introduced that aim to further secure devices against lock screen breaches. These are still in the testing phase and may not be available on all models. Installation requires Device Administrator Permission to effectively monitor unlock attempts. Users should note that certain restrictions apply post-reboot and on newer versions of Android due to the platform's security policies.

To further enhance user support, extensive help resources, privacy policy information, and FAQs are provided. For anyone prioritizing the security of their mobile device, equipping it with CrookCatcher is a decision that offers a high level of protection against breaches of phone privacy.
