Hello,
When fiddling with Avast Anti-Theft's geo-location abilities I realized that most of the time it was only able to locate my phone thanks to the wifi network it was connected to (oddly, the data connection never seems to work). This is already very good but the downside is that most of the time, the 150m accuracy provided by a wifi geo-location is simply not enough to locate a lost/stolen phone in a dense urban environment, even if used alongside the siren feature.
What would really be convenient would be a wifi hotspot feature.
What if I could configure Avast Anti-Theft to give my phone's hotspot a predetermined and distinct name to be used only if my device got stolen or lost ? And what if I was then able to stealthily activate this very wifi hotspot on my device in case it got stolen or lost ? Using something as basic as
this kind of interface would allow me to accurately pinpoint my device position using the wifi signal strength ! It would be absolutely amazing ! Most, if not all android devices are already wifi hotspot capable, and this is exactly the kind of feature which would allow Avast Anti-Theft to stand out from its competitors ! And I for one, would totally be willing to pay for such a nice feature.
I really hope you good people of Avast would consider such a cool feature.
Regards.
