Anybody downloaded it? any good?

Is this is the answer to the find my iphone app?

Very simple to use. Every device should have it.

It is alright. But the fact google wants to use locations all the time I hate it..
Google is really collecting too much personal, unnecessary date from us. Never liked this, and I never will be

It has to "use" your location...because well...if you need to.... find your phone! Only way to find your phone if lost or stolen is what? By location? Yup. I agree that Google collects too much data on us BUT most of the apps nowadays use location and data to provide the information you want. All companies do this. If you're that concerned, may I suggest the "jitterbug"?

Androids device manager is on every Android phone I think. Even my old Note 1. There may be a requirement for ICS. No software has to be downloaded for it. Just enable it in device administrators. Then you can get to the device via Google website.

You can't opt out. Just don't enable it.

You can leave location off. It will still be able to remotely lock and wipe the phone, just not locate it.

It still find my phones with location services off. It triangulates your mobile signal, I believe.
