"LookOut" for your phone

So this new app was recently released to the public. It is called "Lookout." This app is available for download on any smartphone including iphone, blackberry, droid, and more. The purpose of the app is to protect your smartphone which is your personal computer. In terms of security the app protects your smartphones from viruses and malware by preventing certain app that contain bugs to be downloaded. Lookout also has the backup feature. If anything happens to your smartphone the backup feature will let you backup your smartphone to when it properly functioned. Lastly, the lookout app claims that it can help you locate your smartphone when it is lost by logging in to your account via computer.
I personal tried this app and ended up uninstalling because it was a hassle, was complicated, and took up a lot of my battery. but this website is worth checking out.

  1. I've used lookout before on my smartphones. I had trouble with the actual antivirus part of it but I did end up forgetting my phone on the tram at disney land and found the location device works. I logged into my brothers smartphone and found that the exact location of my phone. After of course being so confused by it moving.
