Recover Lost/stolen Iphone :

Navizon has released a beta version of the Navizon GPS application for Apple iPhone  featuring a new option called Locate-by-SMS which allows you to locate your lost iPhone by sending an SMS text message to it.

When an SMS is received that begins with the keyword you specified in the settings, the software will automatically determine the current location and send a reply containing the location of the device. If the location is in USA and a street address has been identified, then the SMS reply will contain full details, otherwise it will just contain a link to a point on Google Maps.

This Navizon application attempts to determine the location three times before a failure SMS Navizon_iphone_recovermessage is sent.Navizon also includes GPS location tracking option that allows all users to track their friends and family members .

You can see the Video on How Navizon recover’s the Lost iphone!

How to use Navizon to locate your stolen/lost iphone

You can activate this feature by going to the settings and enable the Locate-By-SMS function. Enter your chosen keyword and your Iphone device is set. When you send a sms to your iPhone with the chosen keyword, Navizon will send back the coordinates of your phone to the senders number.

Retrieving your iPhone’s GSM cellular id location via Twitter

This program is called FindMe which allows you to get the GSM cellular id of your Iphone using twitter.This application tells you the GSM tower’s cell id as well as its latitude and longitude with the help of Google Maps.

How Findme should be used to retrieve the GSM cellular id

First create a new Twitter account just for your iPhone (create a new account). Open the Settings panel, and look for the “Protect My Updates” checkbox. It’s towards the bottom of the page, just above the Save button. Check this and click Save. With protected updates, only the Twitter users you approve will see the updates for this iPhone-only account (just you? you + spouse? spouse, kids, and “special friends?” Up to you).After creating your phone’s Twitter account, you’re ready to set up your iPhone to tweet in on a regular basis.

You can also use a public Twitter account if you want everyone to be able to track your progress say while you are travelling.

  1. August 7, 2010 — I just loaded a NEW app called Fonehome. After reading reviews of the various ‘lost iphone apps,’ I discovered this NEW (July 2010) and INEXPENSIVE app.

    Testing it – the sound is disappointing but the location is BANG-ON!

    (I’m in Canada – one of the complaints I read of iHound is that it didn’t give canadian addresses AND it needs to be RUNNING!)

  3. Now that the iPhone supports multitasking, I found a great app for tracking and recovering an iPhone / iPod / iPad. It’s called FoneHome. Super cheap compared to Mobile Me and it works great!

  4. IMEI no. is useless. My telco cant do anything about it. Called apple, they say they can trace the phone back.
