FMD vs MemoryGuardian
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
FMD
I lost my new phone. And because I don't use Google Services I couldn't locate it and my phone was gone for good. In the hope that this doesn't happen again, I developed this application, so that I can locate the phone via SMS. Features: - Locate the device (using GPS or cellular location) - Lock the device - Let the device ring - Take pictures with the device's camera to see its surroundings - Factory-reset the device Usage: You can control FMD (and thus your phone) either via SMS or via FMD Server. You send a command to the phone (e.g. "fmd ring") and the phone executes it. For SMS you can either define a list of trusted contacts (phone numbers) that are allowed to send commands. Or you can set a PIN to allow anonymous usage. Then non-trusted phone numbers can also send commands by including the PIN in the message. This is useful because now if you lose your phone, you can ask a random person for help to wipe your phone remotely. If you simply text "fmd" to your phone FMD will reply with a text listing the available commands. With FMD Server you get a web interface to send commands, to view the location of your device on a map, and to view pictures taken by the device. You can self-host FMD Server.

We hope it is useful, we use it ourselves, but this is a hobby project and we can't guarantee that it will work when you need it the most.
