AI and sudden movement detection will allow you to automatically lock your smartphone in the event of theft

Amoment of inattention. Even if we are as careful as possible, there is a good chance that one day, someone with bad intentions will manage to steal our phone. To counterattack, Google decided to develop a new feature allowing the phone to be locked at the first sudden movement in the case of a snatching for example.

Practical, the option should be available in the coming months for all phones equipped with Android 10 and all later versions up to Android 15confirm our colleagues at 01net . This new feature uses motion sensors and artificial intelligence, explains the media.

More features to come

And what happens if it’s the owner of the phone who makes a sudden movement without doing it on purpose? No worries for the clumsy, as to normally unlock the phone, all you need is the unlock code or a biometric means.

This feature comes with other new features, including the addition of authentication to deactivate the location function, the ability to lock the stolen phone from any other device using the phone number and a system of remote authentication. Users running Android 10 and later will be able to sleep more peacefully, or at least limit the panic that follows theft.
