Loved this app but doesn't work with Android Marshmlow and Nougat on any of my phones. The most important feature is locate phone but that now NEVER works.. ever. Update: i now have managed to get it to work but only with the website - not the text messaging, but it is very useful app.

There is no better app than this one to reach your lost android device. Even better than Google's own Lost my Phone and Android Manager. Small in size and does the task beautifully. Suggestion: Give an option to hide app icon from menu. Also, restrict uninstall if done by unknown user.

I love this app dearly and have been using it for years, however the new device security on Android 7.0 keeps identifying it as malware and won't leave my notifications. Very annoying. UPDATE: No change after app update on Samsung devices

I have tried so many apps trying to do what this one does. Hands down the one I rely on the most. New options as he can, updates all the time, excellent support, can't say enough good things about it.... And I hate everything usually.

A great app, been using it for several years and it's always worked. However, it'd be nice if GPS toggle could work (I know it doesn't always work). Also, how can I stop my phone from flagging the app as a malware threat?

This app was great until the latest android 7 release for Samsung Galaxy where it is now reported as a security risk raising co stant notifications that you cannot disable. The app was only just updated and i thought the update was for this problem but turns out it wasnt.

This is a great app for tracking your phone and protecting your information. I liked the old logo, the picture hid the fact that I would know if you took my phone. Please bring back the logo that was disguised as a note taking app. Thanks!

Stefano A June 5, 2017

It was a good app, but it looks like it's not updated anymore. New root in android 7 is not recognised (I cannot push a system app) plus it is recognised as a malware!

A Google User June 3, 2017

Non-invasive app so it's not running in the background all the time, and performs exactly as advertised as long as you read the instructions. 3 years of use and still happy with application.

The newest version was just installed on my Verizon Wireless Galaxy S7, which also has all of the updates, and now this application is showing as Malware. Please fix. Thank you.

I hope this will be useful cause I lost my old phone and I see on my search history that someone horny is using my phone to search for his/her dirty stuff

Echo Gavin June 17, 2017

Pramod Ghorpade June 4, 2017

The new update 2.73 is not updating the security level to tick administrative rights, after enabling it in setting

Ola G June 14, 2017

Great app that I've recommended to friends. Its one of the first apps I put on my new phones or put back after a clean reset.

Aboe Tojib June 3, 2017

the most horrorable 😨😨😨 anti-thief, flexibest, simplest android app.

Alishah Jamal June 3, 2017

The latest update now lists the app as Lost Android and not as Personal Notes as previously

parth goswami June 5, 2017

Amazing app. I have had it for several years. Works like a charm!

John Garman June 15, 2017

Was the best app ever until I got a newer phone & now it no longer gives location by WiFi when GPS is off.

Lps Valerie! June 13, 2017

This app have been serving it's purpose for so long. Really thankful to this developer for such an awesome app!

Ramesh Sharma June 23, 2017

Probably the best anti-theft app against it's own rivals that costs you money to work properly. I greatly appreciate all the hard efforts to build this reliable anti-theft app, however, this application appears to be one-click away against my device's task manager. As much as I wanted to add this to ignore list/whitelist and prevent it from closing, my phone (Redmi Note 3 Pro) don't support it. I'll be more than glad if Lost Android's task integration will be adjusted for our device's needs. Thanks devs!

This is my favorite app! I've tried all the features and they totally work. I've been using it for the past month and no problems. I've put it on all of our phones and I feel confident that I will find it if they get lost or stolen. The only thing I would change is to send an instant status report if the phone is off when you are trying to send it something saying whether its off or access has been turned off. But still it is a great app.

Eric Macleod June 2, 2017

Omg I have used this for 2 years and I have lost my phone and it got stolen. I was able to steal it back because I was able to record and locate. N see texts n calls. Best app for ur kids. So u know they are safe. Or cheaters... educational purposes only😶. They will have no idea it's on the phone and they can't unis tall it unless they know how to get around administrative security

Sean Potter October 17, 2016

PLEASE READ This is / has been the best app ever made for its purpose, if you cannot figure it out or take time to read instruction. Go elseware. It is NOT malware!! Any app with this amout of flexibility in the system will get flagged by crappy malware apps, especially when the AV company is too stupid to whitelist known apps like this one. Its an app that installs under a diff download name. Sick of readed all the bad comments that are pure ignorance. Pick up a book.The most deserving 5 star app ever made.

Katt October 7, 2016

easy log in to control a lot of these aps require you to text codes to the device from another phone to control. good luck remembering those codes. this you just log into google account. yes, any good security will flag as malware because of its features. its not. this is also well hidden in the device as personal notes so no one detects its installed unless they can get into play store or are familiar with the app

Michael Byléhn December 6, 2016

It works p perfectly which is great. My biggest issue isn't the UI but the fact that you can only use your Google account. I'll show you a typical scenario: 1) you lose your phone when you're away 2) you ask a stranger to borrow their phone so you can call your phone, no luck/answer, you call your friend to use Android Lost to find it and take pictures 3) you have to give your Google Password for him to find it! It's THE most sacred password you own. If this were an AndroidLost account you would have no issue giving them your password.

Nothing fancy but it works It seems a bit clunky at first but once you get used to it it works like a charm. Test it after installing it and familiarize yourself with the controls. I feel comfortable knowing it's installed on my phone. This is one of the very first apps I install on every new Android I get :)
