Padlock: Mobile Privacy Guard

About Padlock: Mobile Privacy Guard

Walk away from your phone with peace of mind. With just a few taps, you can lock down your phone for maximum protection.

Padlock gives you robust power through a minimal interface to detect for battery removal, motion, SIM removal, and light sensitivity.

If you have never dealt with the emotional roller coaster of having your phone stolen, we hope this app keeps that experience at bay! 

Key Features: 

Battery - Need to leave your phone charging in another room? Set an alarm to go off if someone unplugs your phone.

Motion - When you want to unplug from technology, motion detection keeps your phone secure while you're away. If your phone is moved even slightly, the alarm trips and blocks access to your phone.

SIM Card Removal - Want to protect yourself from SIM swapping? Set an alarm to detect SIM removal or alteration. Say you have all other Padlock features turned off, but SIM Card Removal on - Padlock's alarm will...

Theft (Light Sensitivity) - A feature perfect for traveling in crowded areas. Using your phone's light sensor, Padlock can detect when your phone is removed from a pocket or purse.

Contact Alerts - Padlock can send alerts to contacts you select when your alarm is triggered.

When Padlock's alarm is tripped:

Arming Mode  - Tap the main lock icon, and in seconds all selected features are activated
Countdown Alert - If the alarm is tripped, 20 second countdown appears on the screen, giving you an opportunity to disable the alarm if it was a mistake
Trigger Mode - A loud siren sounds and startling red screen will go off on repeat until disarmed
Disarm Alarm - Enter your Padlock pass code to turn off the alarm


Padlock was designed to raise awareness about phone theft and the importance of data security. We hope that through using Padlock, you'll find value in the security and practicality of protecting your personal information, prevent theft, and increase your chances of recovering a stolen device.
