Hi, I’m looking for an alternative to Google’s Find my phone that can be self hosted. Most important feature would be to see the last known location of a mobile phone without disclosing the location to any third party system. It would be nice to have features like making the phone ring or wiping the phone remotely.
Happy to hear any ideas what you people are using.
I am using this one. Texting or messaging my phone (on anything that makes a notification popup) with the text “fmd password location” gives me GPS coords. More than enough for me, and works even from a borrowed stranger’s phone.
Setup steps require ADB though, because in the phone ecosystem getting “unusual” permissions usually requires business deals with Google/Apple.
