About this app

Pickup Alarm protects your Android phone against theft and unauthorized taking — with a Bluetooth device you are already carrying.

HOW IT WORKS
• Pair a BLE tag, keychain, tracker, or compatible watch via Android Bluetooth
• Calibrate in three steps at your usual carrying distance
• Activate Secure on the dashboard
• In the event of signal loss — and optionally movement — a loud alarm will sound on your phone.
• Only *your* PIN will stop the alarm

FOR WHOM
Pickup Alarm is intended for situations where you briefly put your phone down: at the table, on your desk, in the store, or on the go. As long as your tag is in your pocket, bag, or on your keyring, you will know when someone takes your phone. IMPORTANT FEATURES
• BLE signal monitoring (RSSI) — locally on your phone
• Per-device calibration and presets (Nearby / Far)
• Motion detection — alarm only upon pickup AND signal loss (configurable)
• AutoReconnect — recovery after brief signal loss
• Native alarm screen with four-digit PIN
• Optional panic button
• Local event history (on your device)
• No account, no cloud, no subscription

PRICE
• 14-day free trial with full access
• Subsequently, a one-time license fee of €3.99 via Google Play — no monthly fees

PRIVACY
Settings, calibration, PIN, and history remain on your phone. Pickup Alarm does not send personal data to our servers. More info: https://www.pickupalarm.nl/privacy/

COMPATIBLE WITH
BLE devices that you pair via Android Settings → Bluetooth (e.g., key finder, smart tag, compatible watch). Per-device calibration is required for reliable operation. ORDER ITAG

Don't have a suitable Bluetooth tag yet?

Pickup Alarm works with a BLE device you carry with you (e.g. iTag or tracker). Don't have one? Then you can order an iTag tested by us via our website: compact, immediately usable with the app, a one-time payment of € 9.95 incl. VAT and shipping — no subscription.

TIP FOR RELIABLE OPERATION
Disable battery optimization for Pickup Alarm and allow notifications — especially on Samsung devices.
