Lol I bought a louder alarm off iTunes just for this app. ### 5/5 — Great app *2022-11-06* Would highly recommend ### 5/5 — Computer snatcher😟 *2022-10-21* My sister has been stealing my computer late at night sometimes at 3 am so I put my phone on top of my computer and pretended to be asleep and when she grabbed it the alarm started ringing and let me tell you I was bawling my eyes out because she ran out of my room and fell 🤣🤣 ### 4/5 — Best app *2022-06-16* Now I figured it out this is the best app though one little problem wouldn’t the intruders or intruder just press the home button and doing that would disarm the alarm still good app ### 5/5 — Best Phone Security *2022-03-30, version 6.7.8* Extreamly Cool app and very Usefull. Would be Great to have this app Also for Apple Watch. ### 5/5 — Ziraoui abdellah *2022-02-19, version 6.7.7* Abdo ### 5/5 — Security is great *2022-02-18, version 6.7.7* Keep up good work ### 3/5 — Okay….. but *2021-09-13* My complaint about this app is there seems to be no way I can deactivate it without setting off the alarm sound. Wouldn’t it be nice to have a few seconds before it screams at you so that you can put in the passcode so as to not disturb others ? ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Requesting Refund *2024-06-29* Security features don’t work as expected. Me myself have to manually activate alarm then input pin to shut off alarm. Basically I have to be in app in order to do that. When testing I set my phone down wait until it locks after 30seconds then try to pick phone up nothing happens, no vibrating or alarm goes off. Only time alarm works is if Iam in the app and activate it manually then I shut it off by using the PIN number. This isn’t what I was expecting from the app…please refund cost!!. ### 1/5 — Beware *2024-02-26, version 6.8.4* The app does not work as intended. It does not capture attempted phone log in intrusions. I plan to request a refund… somehow. ### 1/5 — К сожалею удаляю *2023-12-17, version 6.8.3* Не работаю ### 1/5 — Shady and Nefarious *2022-12-08, version 6.7.9* I downloaded this app from the Apple App Store and when I clicked to activate it took me to a page to enter my cc number. Even though it stated there would be no charge and that the information was only used for geo location. So I locked my card for safekeeping and sure enough, a charge of 39.99 was attempted. I never agreed to this charge and you guys are reprehensible in your business practices. I will also be filing a complaint with the FCC and the Attorney General as well as Apple. ### 1/5 — iPhone XR *2022-09-08, version 6.7.8* Not sure what’s going on. I paid for the app $7.99 to have the pro version and I can’t figure out how to set it up where my sons phone is locked and if someone tries to unlock it with the wrong code it will send a picture. ### 1/5 — Don’t work when locked *2022-04-06, version 6.7.8* App is junk I want double security on my phone, I wanna be able to set the alarm then lock my phone and have it run in the background this app don’t let you like other apps do ### 1/5 — Suxs *2021-11-19, version 6.7.6* Never put in pin code but there’s a pin code I have no knowledge of. Don’t know how to reset it. ### 1/5 — This don’t work *2021-06-20* I try to avoid people getting in to my phone but the only thing I achieve was downloading this app to see who was snooping on the actual app I purchase. That’s not what’s I was looking for right after the purchase I left phone on the table kids got in to everything on phone except this app I purchase, they were not interested in this app. I purchase this to see who was trying to open my phone with a picture and who manage to get in to it with a picture. ### 1/5 — Ça ne marche pas nul *2021-05-28* C’est très nul ça ne marche pas ### 1/5 — Crashes like it is its job *2021-05-07* I paid the $5 app works for like two minutes before shutting off which would be great if I was worried about someone using my phone while I was still in The room.. if it doesn’t stay running in the background then it’s functionally useless ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I LOVE IT *2025-10-26* When somebody moves or touches the iPad or phone it alerts you with sound or notification if your not there ### 5/5 — Prima *2025-09-25, version 6.8.8* Velmi efektivní a dobře vypadající securiti ### 5/5 — Super *2025-03-26* Super ### 5/5 — JVM *2024-10-01, version 6.8.7* Good security great App thank you so much ### 5/5 — Worth the $4.99 *2024-09-07, version 6.8.6* I’ve got nothing to gain from this review,It works awesome and very simple with no ads.it sounds alarm that you choose with levels of sensitivity that triggers alarm,It takes a photo of who looked at your screen,and gives location where alarm was placed.and gives you the alarm log of events.Pretty damm cool app. ### 5/5 — Jaedyn costa *2024-05-04, version 6.8.4* Burglar arrested ### 5/5 — This app is amazing for making a fake alarm system! *2024-03-08* So I’m just a eight-year-old kid right I made a fake alarm system in my room made with dominoes i’m thinking in my head. Why can I just get this app and put my phone on my door and then every time I on the system and I move the door they will go off, so this is why I drink it is a great app for making a fake alarm system. ### 5/5 — Deco *2023-08-08, version 6.8.2* Like it so far let’s see how well it works! ### 5/5 — Beautiful app *2023-07-27, version 6.8.2* Beautiful app but annoying ### 5/5 — Best sucurity *2023-07-01* I love this app it has so much good surcuriy ever --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
