JoltGuard helps protect your phone in public places with instant
motion detection, charger unplug alerts, and failed-unlock alarms.
FEATURES — FREE
✓ Snatch Alarm
When someone grabs your phone, a 100 dB siren sounds, the camera
light flashes, and the phone vibrates. Works with the screen off.
Trigger sensitivity adjustable in m/s².
✓ Charger Unplug Alarm
If someone pulls out the charging cable, the alarm sounds instantly.
Perfect for cafés, libraries, airports, and trains.
✓ Failed-Unlock Alarm
Wrong PIN or pattern attempts on your lock screen trigger a siren
(or silent alert if you prefer).
✓ On-Device Logs
Every event is logged with the exact time and GPS location, stored
only on your phone. Open them anytime to see what happened and where.
✓ Disarm with Fingerprint or PIN
Set your own owner PIN in Settings → Authentication & Terms.
Disarm the alarm with your fingerprint/face or PIN (nobody else can).
PRO FEATURES — ONE-TIME PURCHASE (no subscription, no ads)
✓ Instant Email Alerts
Receive an alert immediately when an alarm fires—includes the time,
phone location on a Google Maps link, and more details.
✓ SIM-Change Alert
Works with single-SIM and dual-SIM phones. Detects if a new SIM is
inserted into ANY slot, even while your own SIM stays in the other slot.
Alerts show the slot number and carrier name. No special permission needed.
✓ Low-Battery Last Alert
When the battery drops to 15% (not charging), your phone sends one
alert with its location, so you know where to find it.
✓ Tamper Alert
If someone disables JoltGuard's Device Admin protection, you're
alerted immediately with location.
