Testing on the phone location pinpoint
Based on my testing of the location pinpoint feature using the MyLookout.com site , the location pinpoint works well, but accuracy is more towards 1KM area.
Please refer to the green circle in the screenshot below, that is the accuracy range.

Testing on the phone alarm screen trigger feature
Based on my testing, the phone alarm sound was triggered successfully within seconds, and the sound is similar to a US police car siren. The sound generated was almost at max volume. Please refer to the screenshot below, which shows the trigger was activated successfully.

Wonder my Blackberry one how it works, never try their protect software yet.
ReplyDeleteLookout software is available for windows mobile 7, blackberry an also iphone.
ReplyDeleteIn my blog I have mentioned the accuracy is 1km. This actually depends on the accuracy of the phone Gps reading which reflects in the green circle of the map. My phone sometimes gives accuracy of few metres and sometimes few kilometres.
