Picasso van €600k kwijt en weergevonden! 🎨

Vandaag blijkt het schilderij al die tijd in de hal te hebben gestaan. Zorg dat jij je (bijna net zo waardevolle 😉) telefoon altijd terugvindt. Zet 'Vind mijn apparaat' nu AAN! 📍

Staat die van jou al aan? 👇

Just got an alert that my phone is now part of Google's find my phone network. It uses Bluetooth to search for lost phones and would be on as part of using the find my phone feature.

This was like when Amazon decided to turn on wifi sharing by default with as little warning as possible, but at least that I could turn off without disabling Alexa. With this my only option appeared to be to disable find my phone entirely. So I did.

They made me disable a feature that protects my device because I don't want to compromise my security.

Жена часто не помнит, где телефон оставила, горюет.

Решение за 5 минут. Рядом с кроватью приклеил, клей-пистолетом, конечно, zigbee кнопку, которая отправляет сообщение с повышенным приоритетом, и не затыкается, пока не будет прочтено. Даже беззвучный режим пробивает.

Решение для Android / iOS:

Управление через API find my phone от вендоров недоступно, хз почему.

Часто забываете куда телефон положили?

Редко. Не проблема

If you lose your phone while skiing off piste, may I recommend that you have find my phone or it’s equivalent turned on? Just found mine in this nice little nook, an hour after I lost it! #NotaPaidEndorsement #Apple #iPhone #FindMyPhone

So, I've lost my #samsung phone (I just got it back), here's what I found: #remotewipe doesn't work! Somehow, even if the sim card was no longer registered to the networks, #findmyphone was able to track its location (with 15 minutes lag between updates), but those block and erase commands didn't work.
