AI-Powered Anti-Theft Feature for Android Phones: How it Works
AI-Powered Anti-Theft Upgrade for Android Devices
Your Android phone is about to get an AI-powered anti-theft upgrade that can keep your personal information safe. In May of this year, Google teased a new Theft Detection Lock tool for Android phones. Expected to debut with Android 15, the feature would sense a device's motion - such as someone snatching a phone and then running, biking, or driving away - and immediately lock the screen, Google said.
How Does the Theft Detection Lock Work?
According to Android journalist Mishaal Rahman, Theft Detection Lock is finally rolling out. Google explains that AI uses your phone's gyroscope and accelerometer to watch for unusual movements. If the device detects suspicious activity, it locks the screen instantly, safeguarding your data.
