About

ClapLocate

Features
Read full description

ClapLocate helps you ring a misplaced iPhone with a sound only you trained — not every loud noise in the room. HOW IT WORKS 1. Tap Start listening and keep ClapLocate on this screen. 2. Clap twice, whistle, snap your fingers, or use your trained 3-clap beat. 3. Your phone rings, flashes, and vibrates until you stop it. WHY CLAPLOCATE IS DIFFERENT • My Beat — train a three-clap rhythm that is yours. TV claps and door slams are less likely to match. • Train clap — optional fingerprint so everyday noise is ignored. • Whistle & snap — more ways to find it when clapping is awkward. • Quiet hours — at night, find uses flashlight and vibration only. Anti-theft still uses the siren. • Return card — put your name and number on the alarm screen so a stranger can call you back. • Anti-theft — motion, pocket lift, and charger unplug alerts with PIN and black-screen guard. • Battery alerts — chimes for full, low, plug, and unplug events you choose. • History — times and last-seen place, stored on this iPhone only. • 16 original alert tones, 6 vibration patterns, flash, timers, and Override Silent. BUILT FOR REAL LIFE • One tap to start listening from the home screen. • Quiet find mode — flash only, no ring (libraries, shared rooms). • Voice passphrase — optional on-device phrase to ring the phone. • Honest about iOS: listening pauses if you leave the app. That is a system limit, not a bug. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No account • No ads • No tracking • No analytics SDK • Audio processed on-device • PIN stored in Keychain • You can reset trained claps and clear history anytime ClapLocate is a personal sound sentry — not a generic “clap to find” clone. Note: Microphone access is required to hear your clap, whistle, or snap. Location is optional for history pins. Camera is used for flashlight and optional evidence stills.
