Full description
Enroll your Android smartphones and tablets or manage your entire inventory on the go. With this Android app, admins can monitor and secure their mobile fleet directly from any Android device. UNIFIED FLEET MONITORING Oversee your entire inventory regardless of the operating system. From this app, you can trigger actions and track locations for devices running Windows, macOS, Ubuntu, ChromeOS, and other Android devices, all from a single mobile dashboard. Note on OS compatibility: Features such as Kill Switch, Remote Lock, or Missing Reports vary based on the target device's operating system and permissions to ensure the highest security standards. CORE CAPABILITIES ● Always-on Tracking: Precise location data and Geofences with automated alerts for unauthorized movements. ● Remote Security: Wipe data, Screen Lock, Factory Reset, and Retrieve files to protect sensitive information. ● Evidence Reports: Gather network data, photos (opt-in), and location history from missing assets. ● Inventory management: Schedule security actions, manage device loans, and set custom team roles and permissions. ✽ Note: Features vary by plan. Please select the plan that best suits your organization's needs. SECURITY FIRST: AUTHENTICATION To provide the highest level of protection, Prey uses password-only authentication. Requiring full credentials instead of Face-ID or Fingerprints ensures that only authorized admins can execute sensitive security commands, eliminating risks associated with biometric bypasses. WHY CHOOSE PREY? ● 15+ years of experience: A global leader in device recovery and mobile device management. ● Privacy & transparency: Open Source code ensures your data is only accessed when you explicitly request it via the platform. ● Certified protection: We are SOC2 certified, meeting the highest global standards for data security. ☆ Visit preyproject.com for more information ACCESSIBILITY SERVICE USAGE Prey uses Android's AccessibilityService API exclusively to enforce the Remote Screen Lock feature. When the legitimate device owner marks the device as missing or stolen from the Prey control panel and triggers a lock with password, the Accessibility Service blocks other apps from being opened until the correct unlock password is entered. Prey does NOT use the AccessibilityService API to: • Record audio, calls, or keystrokes • Capture content from other apps • Change user settings without consent • Prevent uninstallation by the device user • Bypass Android's privacy controls Granting the Accessibility permission is optional and is only requested when Remote Screen Lock protection is enabled. You can revoke this permission at any time from Settings → Accessibility → Prey. ⌦ How to Uninstall Prey: For anti-theft protection, Prey requires the Device Admin permission, which prevents unauthorized users from removing the app. This is a separate permission from the Accessibility Service described above. To uninstall Prey, sign in on the login screen, disable the Device Admin permission, and then remove the app like any other.
