Abstract

Mobile phone has taken an important role in the life of individuals today, both professionally and personally. The goal of this paper is to provide a simple offline Android application which solves the issues faced by the user when the phone is misplaced. Some of the essential details can be accessed from the phone and the only requirement is to send an SMS from any mobile device with the pass code that is set on the guardian Android app. The app works totally in the background. The app will automatically detect the incoming messages and filter it to search for the pass code, and on success, it reads the command and perform the task as per the requirements given by the user.
