Publisher's description
From Y1D Software :Guard your iphone, your ipod, your jacket, your briefcase or your hotel or dorm room. Attached to the back of the door, or leaning against the jamb, it's ideal.
A motion alarm is a standard recommendation when traveling: don't be caught without when when you need it. Want to make sure nobody sneaks off with your phone?
This applications waits quietly and then sets off a strident alarm when your device is moved or jostled. Use it to deter people from sneaking away with your phone or tampering with it without your knowledge. You can also leave it in your jacket pocket, in your knapsack, or lean it against your hotel room door to alter you to a thief or intruder. It your door is moved or shaken or belongs disturbed, the alarm will be activated.
The alarm is triggered by any abrupt motion or change of position of your iphone. It is armed a few seconds after the program starts, after a brief delay to allow you to set it down and to compute how sensitive it needs to be.
You can set it so that it keeps ringing until the program is terminated, or to stop as soon as the phone is returned to the position is was in. When the alarm goes off, it is accompanied by a load ringing sound and an animation.
WARNING: The program will exit when the "home button" is pressed. This cannot be changed due to Apple interface restrictions. A flustered thief is unlikely to know this, and you will be alerted by the sound anyhow, but it is a feature to be aware of.
The option setup page is available via a small chevron icon on the front page, but it is only accessible with the first 30 seconds of starting the application.
Via the setup page can set the alarm to go off after a delay of zero to 60 seconds. This delay, if selected, permits you to disable the alarm if you want to. This can also be used to make the alarm more tricky, as well as allowing it to be used as a prank (by dropping it in somebody else's bag). You can also set the front activation image to a picture of your choice.
