When we were in 3rd year in SLIIT there was a subject called MAD - Mobile Application Development. Under that subject we learned iPhone app and android app development. Under MAD we had to develop a n app using android & ios. For that we developed two different applications. Using ios Proffa(Krishantha) developed a puzzle game and for android I developed a mobile security application called "The Seeker" .
The seeker is working based on commands received using SMS messages. Of course, you can customize those commands. In this version (1.1) I created only several basic security functions. In later versions I'm going to implement this with more features.
SIM
In this function rather than the codes you have to mention a trusted mobile number. If the SIM is changed the app will automatically send you the new SIM number and other details. If you want you can get IMEI or the SIM number using the codes at any time.
GPS
After you activated this function, the app will send you the coordinates of the current location where the phone is.This will send a message in every 3 minutes until you send the code again and disable that feature.
ALARM
Using this function you can ring an alarm. This alarm can be stopped only by sending the code again.
LOCK
This will lock your device, even the user unlock it by using your pattern or pin automatically again it will locked. To unlock you have to send the code again.
WIPE
Simple to wipe all your data this function can be used. To wipe all data several minutes will taken. This time is depending on the device.
The Seeker is now available in Google Play.
You can see a demonstration video below.
