What if I lose my mobile phone one day? At the beginning of the mini phone, it was explained that there was no way to retrieve the phone completely, and the so-called ICCID was just probabilistic. So can we achieve instant positioning without changing the number and turning on the phone? Today, let's compare the iCloud "Find My iPhone" function of iPad and iPhone with the "Find My Phone" function of Xiaomi 2 to see how domestic phones are doing in this regard?
The icloud of iPhone can "find my iPhone", and can also use ICCID to obtain the current phone number of iPhone after the user swipes the system to activate, but Master The master has analyzed that ICCID can only know the SIM card number of the activated mobile phone, but can not locate it. It is just to obtain relevant information, find the authorized repair shop nearby, and then find the machine. Nowadays, there are countless software like "Get My Phone Back", but after all, what I downloaded is an APP, which I always feel is not reliable. However, it is much more reliable to search through the cloud platform than APP.
Xiaomi mobile phone is also a cloud platform. The access address is: i.xiaomi.com , log in with the Xiaomi account, and iOS is the iCloud platform.
How is the service of retrieving mobile phones enabled?
As shown in the figure, the setting of Xiaomi mobile phone - synchronization, there is an added account. Note: you must use your own Xiaomi account, if not, you can register, and then open the "Retrieve Mobile Phone Function".
How to realize the "phone retrieval function"? What are the similarities and differences with iOS retrieval?
As shown in the figure below, in the same two cloud platforms, the current mobile account will be displayed on Xiaomi; The current mobile phone number will not be displayed on the iCloud cloud platform. The positioning between cloud platform and mobile phone is very accurate. Here, the information given by Xiaomi's retrieval function will be more humanized than that of iOS.
The mobile phone location can be found through the mobile phone retrieval interface on the cloud platform. If the current mobile phone is turned off, the green location points on the map will be displayed in gray. At this time, when selecting "Locate Mobile Phone", the system will send a short message to the corresponding mobile phone number. Once the mobile phone is turned on, it can be located and prompted.
If the mobile phone card is changed, there will be a prompt interface that asks you to enter the password of the Xiaomi account. If the person who gets the mobile phone does not know the password, then there is only one option: "Swipe the phone!", then the relevant communication data in the mobile phone will be deleted as well. Even if the mobile phone cannot be found, you don't have to worry about your data being seen.
The advantage of cloud platform is that it can lock, locate, and clear data on mobile phones. Compared with APP software, the cloud platform has the brand background of Xiaomi, and will have dedicated servers and maintenance personnel.
We know that the iPhone may be flushed after it is lost or stolen, but it must be activated by inserting a SIM card. At this time, iCCID will be recorded, and the phone number can be found through iCCID. However, Android system is very simple and there is no activation step, so it is very important to realize the function of "retrieving the phone" through the cloud platform. Even if the phone cannot be retrieved, there is no need to worry about the data of the phone being seen. Compared with many APPs, it is more secure.
Future outlook:
If Xiaomi can have a special "logo" for each mobile phone, this special "logo" will not change even if the person who gets the phone changes the SIM card while using the phone, so it is more accurate to locate the "logo" through the cloud platform? In this way, will you still worry about your mobile phone being stolen or lost? Xiaoji also expects Xiaomi to make relevant R&D and improvement. Only domestic brand mobile phones can be designed and changed for the needs of Chinese people!
