Anti-Theft and Pansi SMS
« on: April 20, 2012, 04:06:05 PM »
When I try to install Anti-Theft I get a message that Pansi SMS is incompatible and I should uninstall it or contact the developers.

I have contacted the developers but have not got an answer yet. 

Will the Anti-Theft work if I go ahead and install it, or does this message mean it will not work at all?

The message might mean 3 things:

1) It will work by accident.
2) It will work, but your SMS commands will be visible in the Pansi SMS application.
3) It won't work and your SMS commands will be visible in the Pansi SMS application.

Thanks for the prompt reply.

If it works, does it matter if the SMS commands are shown?

Well, in that case the thief may see your PIN code (avast! Password) and unlock/uninstall the Anti-Theft protection using it.
