Ward - Phone Guard & Alarm
Motion & Charger Theft Alert
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
The alarm thieves can't silence. Face ID protected. Volume locked. Always watching.
Leave your phone. Ward never sleeps.
Place your phone on a table, plug it in, set it down anywhere - and arm Ward with one tap. The moment anyone touches it, moves it, or unplugs the charger, a loud alarm fires instantly. Only your Face ID can stop it.
Designed to feel like Apple made it. Built to outperform everything else.
HOW IT WORKS
Tap once to arm. That's it.
Ward monitors your device continuously - in your pocket, on a cafe table, charging at the airport, on your desk at work. When something changes, you'll know immediately.
Face ID or Touch ID is the only way to silence the alarm. Pressing the volume button does nothing. Force-quitting the app does nothing. Ward keeps sounding.
FOUR PROTECTION MODES
Motion Detection
Someone picks up your phone. The accelerometer detects the movement and triggers the alarm before they take a step.
Charger Removed
You're charging at the airport. Someone unplugs your cable to steal your spot. Ward fires instantly.
Audio Disconnected
Your headphones get pulled out - on the bus, in a library, at the gym. Ward catches it.
Pocket Mode
Your phone is in your pocket or bag. The moment it's removed, the alarm sounds.
Mix and match any combination. Ward monitors all active modes simultaneously.
BUILT FOR THE APPLE ECOSYSTEM
Apple Watch
Arm and disarm Ward from your wrist without touching your phone. The watch companion shows your protection status at a glance. When the alarm fires, your Watch taps your wrist immediately.
iPad and Mac
One purchase. Works on every Apple device signed into your account. Protect your iPad at the library. Guard your MacBook at a coffee shop.
Dynamic Island
Ward lives in the Dynamic Island while active, so you always know protection is on - even with other apps open.
Home Screen Widget
Check your protection status without opening the app.
SECURITY THAT MEANS IT
Face ID Protected
The alarm cannot be stopped without your Face ID, Touch ID, or passcode. There is no dismiss button. There is no workaround.
Volume Lock
During an alarm, the volume is locked at maximum. Physical volume buttons do nothing.
Intruder Photo
When the alarm triggers, Ward silently photographs whoever picked up your phone using the front camera. Photos save to your library. Enable this in Settings - it is off by default.
Background Reliable
Ward stays active when your screen is locked, when other apps are open, and overnight. Unlike competing apps that stop working after a few hours, Ward runs continuously.
PRIVACY FIRST
Ward has no servers. No analytics. No tracking.
Your alarm history, settings, and intruder photos never leave your device or your private iCloud. Your iCloud account is yours - Ward cannot access it. Nobody can.
Sign in with Apple keeps your identity private. We receive only what Apple chooses to share.
