Comments on Identity Sweeper for Android

★★★★★ Works great and best of all PRIVATE The problem with so many other remote wipe / locate apps is they require you to sign up with a third party service, thus giving some random third party ability to wipe your phone. This requires none of that and leaves you in FULL CONTROL. Plus no subscription fees!
★★★★★ Best free app ...for security! Cops are idiots in my city. I "sort of" looked like a dude they were lookin for... They roughed me up and confiscated my droid. They were REALLY p.oed. When I ...Remotely... Factory reset. My phone LOL. The retards thought it was "MAGIC" :)
★★★★★ How to uninstall the app Use "Uninstall" option on the main menu. Because it will ask to enter the password to uninstall, the password has to be set first. My team is sorry for your inconvenience, but uninstallation had to be done this way to be more secure. Best Regards, VS
★★★★★ Droid Charge The best application to protect your phone.... I've tried many and are either confusing or don't work. I love this app :)
★★☆☆☆ Update: My phone locked but only after the stock security lock was active. This app then locked every time the stock security lock activated.
★★☆☆☆ Do not download Cant uninstall the stupid thing...DONT DOWNLOAD THIS APP
★★☆☆☆ Bad app Does not work on my HTC evo 4g,. :-\ sounds like a good app tho. And I can't uninstall it!!! >:(
