Google Theft Detection Feature: A technology has been introduced by Google which will thwart thieves. The company has introduced a new OS update for mobile users – Android 15, which has been named Theft Detection Feature. Regarding this feature, it is being said that by the end of this year it will be made available in Android 10 and all subsequent OS versions.
Giving information in its blog post, Google said that if your phone is lost or stolen, AI will search the entire details of this Android device. It will automatically lock your Android device to prevent thieves from stealing your data. Another important thing is that the Find My Device tool in the phone cannot be turned off and a PIN or fingerprint will be required for this.
How does this technology work?
This latest Android 15 beta version will protect the phone from being stolen or lost. This version is using Google AI, in which the sensor will be activated when the phone is stolen. After the sensor is activated, it will lock your phone. Along with this, sensors like gyroscope and accelerometer in the phone will track the pattern of your phone. If a thief or someone else uses your phone, his pattern of phone use will change and your phone will be locked.
Data is going to be completely safe
Google has announced about The Theft Detection Lock feature in its annual developer conference (Google I/O 2024). Along with this, Google is also going to add a new Private Space option, where sensitive apps such as banking apps can be stored. It uses a second PIN or your biometrics, such as fingerprint, to access apps or data, thus keeping your data completely safe.
