• SIM change alerts via email: When your SIM card is replaced, you receive an email that includes the new location and SIM details (such as phone number and network operator, where available).
• Power cycle detection from the lock screen: If your phone is turned off and back on from a locked screen, the app can send an email to help reveal the hiding place.
• Multi-photo attempts: It can try taking multiple photos, with a few seconds between each shot to capture a clearer view of the face. All photos are included in the email.
• Short audio recording: The app records a 20-second audio clip around your phone and attaches it in an email.
• Offline saving support: If there is no Wi‑Fi or mobile data available, the app stores the collected data on your device and emails it later when network access returns.
