Hi, I’m looking for an alternative to Google’s Find my phone that can be self hosted. Most important feature would be to see the last known location of a mobile phone without disclosing the location to any third party system. It would be nice to have features like making the phone ring or wiping the phone remotely.
Happy to hear any ideas what you people are using.
You can just remotely enable high accuracy mode for a minute and it will trace their path on a map cleanly.
_action: notify.mobile_app_your_fone metadata: {} data: message: device_high_accuracy_mode data: silent: true high_accuracy_mode: turn_on channel: loc __wouldn’t that either be disabled due to the low battery or eat up the remainder of the battery?
I would think snapping coords, even at low accuracy, would be more power efficient since it technically doesn’t have to connect to more satellites and requires less compute.
