Mobile Defense
Mobile Defense is hands down the best tracking and recovery app there is for the myTouch and Android. The service offers a number of different ways to track down a lost or stolen myTouch. It runs intermittently in the background, so that the service cannot be easily stopped in a stolen device. Once you have installed and configured this app on your myTouch, you’ll be able to login to the Mobile Defense website where you can see your phone pinpointed on a map. The app can use both the GPS radio as well as cellular triangulation to locate your device in case the GPS is turned off. The website also lets you see recent activity on the device depending on what settings you’ve enabled on the app.Â
 
The service sends you relevant emails as events take place with your lost or stolen phone, including whether or not your myTouch is locked. Another invaluable service is a notification that tells you when the SIM in your myTouch is changed, and actually gives you full details about the new SIM – including the phone number. This is a whole another layer of information that you can use to escalate your loss or theft to the appropriate authorities. Mobile Defense also pays attention to battery life, and is not a significant drain on power at all on the myTouch. This is one of the most useful myTouch apps on the Android market today, and the developers remain very responsive to problems and issues. A must-download for all myTouch owners.
