In this order

  1. 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.

  2. Make calls over Wi-Fi where signal is weak

    In a basement, a thick-walled house or abroad, your calls and texts can go over Wi-Fi instead of the mobile network.

    Wi-Fi calling, about 1 minute, on Samsung, Pixel and Xiaomi
  3. Talk with someone in another language face to face

    At a shop counter or a hotel desk, your phone listens and shows each side the translation in their own language.

    Interpreter, about 2 minutes, on Samsung and Pixel
  4. Talk on the phone in another language

    Your phone translates both sides of a normal phone call as you speak, so you can book a table or sort out a problem abroad.

    Live Translate for calls, about 3 minutes, on Samsung and Pixel
  5. 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.
