Phone Security App Pro

PSA Pro is the most customizable and least intrusive anti-theft alarm available. The app relies on your device's built in sensors to alert you when needed.

Motion Detection Mode
• Utilizes the accelerometer sensors on your device to monitor for movement
• Sensitivity control for movement threshold
• One touch activation
• Alarm sounds when device is picked up after being armed

Pickpocket Mode
• Utilizes your device's proximity sensor to determine if your device has been removed from your pocket or bag/purse
• Configurable proximity distance in centimeters for devices that support this
• Alarm sounds when device has been removed from pocket or bag
Please note that this mode will not work properly if you use a case or flip cover on your phone that blocks the proximity sensor. Also note that some devices only support a near and far measurement for the proximity sensor.

Charger Mode
• Alarm sounds when charger is unplugged

Password Mode
• Alarm sounds when incorrect pass code or pattern is entered on your lock screen

Alarm Features

• Pick any audio clip from your phone to play as the alarm or choose from a few of the provided options

0 seconds for immediate alarm feedback or up to 10 seconds to provide you time to deactivate the alarm without setting it off yourself

• Minimal permissions needed compared to similar apps
• No ads or internet access needed ever
• Basic instructions provided in app

No need to remember another password!

Good security often consists of multiple layers. This app attempts to help secure your phone at a physical level. If a potential thief tries to take your phone, then they will be greeted with a loud alarm of your choosing. Usually a blaring alarm is enough of a deterrent to prevent theft in a public or private setting.

Use Cases
• Leaving your phone on the sideline when playing pickup basketball
• Setting your phone down when working out at the gym
• Placing your phone in your pocket walking through crowded areas
• Setting your phone in your purse when walking around the grocery store
• Leaving your phone on the side when riding a roller coaster
• Putting your phone in a bag on the ground while watching a show
• Leaving your phone on your desk at work when you use the bathroom
• Charging your device in the airport
• Charging your device when you are sleeping
• Pranking someone you know with a personalized audio clip when they take your device

Permission Transparency
• Storage: the storage permission is only used to retrieve custom audio files on your phone. If you do not use this feature, then there is no need to allow this permission.
