    Default locator app

    Does anyone have an opinion on the best app to locate a phone? I am always misplacing my phone and need a quick way to locate it in my house.

    Thanks

    the mobile phone's make and model does matter. recent mobile phones now have a built in gps system which is indeed helpful in tracking your phone. apple's iphone also has mobile me.

    if your phone doesn't have it, then you may need to get a 3rd party's phone locator software.

    And if you are using iPhone with iOS 4.0 and above you can use the "Find My iPhone" which you will see from the link below. This features:
    [LIST][*]Locate your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Mac on a map
[*]Display a message on the screen[*]Play a sound for two minutes at full volume (even if your device is set to silent)[*]Remotely lock your device
[*]Remotely wipe your device to erase your personal data


    App Store - Find My iPhone

    Any idea for other phones. If a 3rd party app is needed, then what's the best one to use? thoughts?
