Theft-proof in 10 minutes
A stolen phone locks itself, stays findable, and keeps your banking apps shut.
In this order
- Lock your phone the moment it is snatched
If someone grabs your phone and runs, it locks itself. It also locks if a thief keeps it offline, and you can lock it yourself from another phone.
Theft protection, about 3 minutes, on Samsung, Pixel and Xiaomi - Find, ring or lock a lost phone
If your phone goes missing, you can see it on a map, ring it at full volume or lock it from another device.
Find Hub, about 3 minutes, on Samsung, Pixel and Xiaomi - Turn off face and fingerprint unlock in one tap
Lockdown makes your PIN the only way in until you next unlock, so nobody can hold the phone up to your face or press your finger on it.
Lockdown, about 1 minute, on Samsung and Pixel - Keep your messages private on the lock screen
Anyone who picks up your phone can read message previews. Hiding the content shows that something arrived, not what it says.
Hide notification content, about 1 minute, on Samsung and Pixel - Lock a single app behind your fingerprint
Banking, photo or chat apps can ask for your fingerprint or PIN before they open, even when the phone is already unlocked.
App lock, about 2 minutes, on Samsung, Pixel and Xiaomi - Block risky apps and attacks with one switch
One switch stops apps from unknown sources, blocks harmful commands sent over USB cables, and adds extra scam protection.
Auto Blocker, about 1 minute, on Samsung and Pixel
Not every step exists on every phone. Each guide shows only the brands we have steps for, and Phonewell skips what your model doesn't have.
