Losing your cell phone is a terrifying thought, but we can defend ourselves against such an occurrence. How? But by installing the right applications and making the right changes of course!
First of all, always set one password per il lock screen. The first thing a person who finds a mobile phone does is check if it is turned on, and even if there is a possibility that he is doing it to try to call family members or friends of the person who has lost the smartphone, better not risk ... with certain Apps you can add an additional message that reports a number or similar.
Here is the image that explains how to activate the screen lock:
But let's think about something better: how track down our cellphone if we find it.
First of all always keep in mind to keep active GPS and Wifi if you go out. They are great for tracing your mobile phone in case of loss (if one connects with Wifi, it is traceable anyway!)
You can use two very safe and tested methods, here they are:
Use the Google system. Google at its root has security options for your mobile phone, from which you can access the android device manager (https://www.google.com/android/devicemanager?hl=it). This also works when the screen is off and you can install a combined App that can increase the security of your Smartphone. You can also consult the function by typing "Where is my mobile phone" directly in Google, in the search. With this system you can also make your mobile phone ring, block it or delete it.
If you like a professional solution you can install Prey

It is a very powerful App that can also hide itself in your system, either by removing the icons or turning into a fake game. The way it works, however, changes from mobile to mobile: in some with the screen off it does not work properly, in others it can work even with the screen off. It is good to test it. You can send messages, erase the memory of your mobile phone, and much more.
