Android, With the Help of Lookout, Tracks a Stolen Car; Cops Find Car in 17 Minutes 5

We love Android, because it's so versatile. We can tailor it to our user experience, it can transcribe our words to text messages, we can make video calls, and we can play games. But right now, there's a woman in Peoria, Arizona who loves Android because it helped the police recover her stolen car.

Lookout Security has been our Android security app of choice since we first got some hands-on time with it, and we've sung the praises of Lookout Labs on more than one occasion. Not surprisingly, we were quite proud — as were they — when, back in December, their security app led to the arrest of a car thief by using the app's ‘Track my phone' feature to catch the perp…within the hour. Well, our friend Alicia at Lookout just gave us a heads-up that they've done it again, catching the car thieves in just 17 minutes. Normally we wouldn't advocate leaving your cell phone in your car, but this time it paid off…and, with Android tablets being mounted on dashboards, this app could become even more powerful in the near future.

If you don't already have Lookout Security, be sure and download the app directly from our application database.
