There will also be an Android app to allow you to easily find and manage your devices. This service is now available on devices running Android 2.2 or above to use it, you also will need to be signed into your Google Account. If your phone can’t be recovered, or has been stolen, you can quickly and securely erase all of the data on your device. While losing your phone can be stressful, Android Device Manager can help you keep your data from ending up in the wrong hands. Protecting your personal information and data Being able to do this through the Android Device Manager means that even after you lose your phone, you’ll still be able to add a lock (or change an existing lock) to your device. Whether you’re on a phone or a tablet, a screen lock is an important security step to protect the information stored on your device, in case it accidentally gets into the wrong hands.

The connected phone or tablet’s Offline Finding settings will also be applied to your Galaxy Watch and Buds.
