100% secure - motion detection for iPhone and iPad. Secure your phone and tablet at all times. Alert yourself with custom sounds. DevPro is the most reliable security APP to protect against unnoticed movement of your mobile devices. We detect every movement - even in the background. Reliable, secure and energy-saving. It's an Anti-Theft APP and can be activated extremely quickly with a single wipe or press of a widget. It registers movement with an adjustable sensitivity and triggers an audible alarm to deter thieves. Protect your phone or pad. You can use pre-defined alarms, add external .wav files or create your own custom sounds. Give robbers no chance to steal your device. DevPro works with many different operating system versions. The alarm function is triggered by movement of the device. No Internet connection is required. DevPro is the stand alone bodyguard for your device. This APP is the perfect security app to prevent others from touching the device and taking away . We invested a lot of time to find a reliable way to safe your phone or pad, no one can bypass the security features to deactivate the alarm. We use Touch-ID or Face-ID to unlock. No separate code required. A few more unique functions: • Adjustable alarm triggering sensitivity • Adjustable alarm volume • Directly accessible via widget • Individual alarms and voice messages • Preset scenes can be defined (office, hotel, outdoor,...) • Active in the background To enable you to start with low upfront activities, we integrated a lot of predefined adjustments you can modify for your own need. To activate the motion detection we want to be fast. You can define a number of presets like school, hotel, home, library,... to get the right configuration of sound, loudness, sensitivity and pre-alert at the right situation. We track the location in the background. This enables you to put the device in sleep mode and keep the motion detection still alive. DevPro - the idea - why? We travel a lot and were scared about the situations in hotels and during fairs. We could not leave our devices on a table or chair while we where absent. To fetch some food from the buffet during breakfast was not so easy for example. Thats why we decided to develop a 100% reliable security system based on the motion detection. Why Presets? Important for us, was to take care on different situations with different needs on sensitivity, loudness and alarm sound. We wanted to get raw motion alert reachable by a single push. Thats why we enabled "Presets" for different situations. Why Widgets? Sometimes speed is important if you want to be reliable securing your device. We enabled to use widgets to reach the security mode extremely fast. We developed a fully reliable easy to reach motion detection solution for iPad and iPhone. Stay secure during trip or at school, restaurant, bars,... The configuration of sound, sensitivity, alarm type helps to take care on every different situation where you want to protect your device - DevPro!

Works really well... but why the need for location services???
06/27/2020

DonTommisino
The app works well and seems very polished, but I don’t understand why it needs location services(GPS)??It’s not like if it gets stolen it’s going to track it and send you the location. Using GPS burns through your battery, this requirement needs to be removed.

Developer Response
Hello! Thank you for your feedback! We don't use GPS for localization we just need it to detect the motion in the background. We are interested from the beginning to avoid a connect to a server. Thats why DevPro is fully autonomous. It is only necessary during the use of the app.Thanks againYour DevPro Team

The writing style, syntax errors, and stilted language of the the first 6 reviews I read were VERY similar with 1 exception. The likelihood of this is hard to calculate but it made me start to investigate. User Rehptsirhez reported an issue and his writing did not closely match the other reviews. what is strange is the dev response. It’s the same kind of word salad that was common in the reviews that made my spider sense start tingling. It’s possible all the reviewers happen to be from a location where everyone speaks English as though they are reading a script that hasn’t been proofread. I could be totally wrong about my assessment. I’m just saying it’s not a good look and if I was involved with this app I’d be concerned.

Wow I wasn’t expecting much when I got this app. Thought it would be one of those apps that makes claims and fails to deliver.I just toyed with this app. Set it up and activated it. Placed the phone on my bed. Went to use the bathroom and wheeeooooeeeeeoooooo hahahah girlfriend grabbed my phone. Now she thinks I’m cheating on her. Hahah oh great!Haha just kidding. I told her I got it for her cause she had someone steal her phone from a shopping cart once. She like to leave her phone sitting on a table like it’s going to magically hold her spot and not end up in someone’s bag. Well now it does just that!Wishful thinking but wonder if it’s possible to have it “armed” while in use and once motionless for a few min it’ll go into protect mode?I see a great future for this app.

Developer Response
Hello! Thank you for your positive feedback! We are glad to hear that you are happy with the application! Your idea is certainly worth considering, but it is currently not allowed by Apple to track inactivity by time. We will keep this in mind and check again with further releases. Thank you again!

Except when you set it to use GPS ‘only when using’. It sometimes works and others times it doesn’t. You should not have to have it track you even when you are not using it. Why does it have to be spyware. 3 stars

Developer Response
Hello! Thank you for your feedback! We appreciate this! GPS must be used to get the movement information also while the APP is running in the background. Otherwise the APP can not recognise anything. We don't track the position but we need this to get the information about the movement of the device. We are sorry for that, but that's needed in case of the Apple policy. Thanks for Using DevPro!
