The GPS Find function allows you to locate a device remotely. The GPS Find function allows you to receive the device's coordinates in an SMS sent to the phone number, from which a special SMS command has been sent, or to the email address that you have specified. To send an email message, the application sends an SMS to the Kaspersky Lab server. The Kaspersky Lab server sends the current phone number to your email address.
Note! Outgoing SMS will be billed at the rates set by the mobile provider for the phone where the SMS command originates.
If the device features a GPS receiver, it will be automatically enabled after the device receives a special SMS command. If the GPS Find cannot receive the device's coordinates, it determines the approximate coordinates of the device using base stations.
On the GPS Find screen, you can enable the function and specify the email address, to which the device's coordinates will be sent automatically.
