Prey is a theft protection application which was designed to help locate stolen or missing devices, such as laptops, tablets and smartphones.

After installation, the app is controlled from a website, at which the owner can track the device's location, capture its IP address, activate the camera, sound an alarm, message the device, and finely lock it down.

Moreover, if the device is stolen, the Prey allows the owner to remotely recover the stored data and wipe the entire operating system. This means that any data stored on the device will not fall in the hands of a thief.

The Prey app can be downloaded from this website. However, the number of downloads is limited, and a free license supports only up to three devices. To secure any additional devices the users need to purchase a Pro version of the app.
