Anti Theft Alarm: Don't Touch

Mobile device utility to detect motion and trigger an anti-theft audio alarm.

Anti Theft Alarm provides a localized hardware monitoring utility designed to alert you if your Android device is moved, picked up, or handled without your permission. By utilizing your device’s built-in internal sensors, the application monitors for sudden movement and responds by sounding a high-volume audio alert to signal unauthorized handling.

Core Utility Features:
Motion Detection Alert: Utilizes the device gyroscope and accelerometer to detect when the phone is lifted or shifted from its position.

Pocket Disconnect Detection: Monitors proximity and ambient light changes to trigger an alert if the device is removed from a pocket or bag.

Charger Disconnection Log: Triggers an audio response immediately if the charging cable is unplugged without authorization.

Custom Alarm Settings: Select from different audio tones, adjust delay times, and manage volume levels within the app framework.

Functional Mechanics & Security Boundaries:
PIN and Pattern Override: The active audio alarm can only be deactivated by entering a user-defined passcode or pattern directly inside the application.

Local Processing: All sensor monitoring and data evaluation happen strictly on your local hardware. The application does not track location data or upload user activity logs to cloud servers.

Continuous Background Monitoring: Operates efficiently within standard Android background service limits to ensure sensor tracking remains active when the screen is turned off.

Intended Use Cases:
For users who want an acoustic alert if someone attempts to pick up their device while left unattended on a desk or table.

For individuals looking to secure their device from being subtly removed from their pockets in crowded spaces.

For monitoring public charging stations to prevent unauthorized cable removal.

(Note: This application requires standard hardware access permissions to interface with your device's motion sensors and audio output systems. It operates as a deterrent utility and cannot physically prevent physical theft, track a lost device geographically, or override core factory reset protocols).
