On Friday Google had announced that it would offer a service to locate or securely wipe a lost Android phone by the end of this month. The service will be available to all Android phones running Android 2.2 or newer versions of the OS.

The service will be called Android Device Manager and will be available for free.

Android Device Manager will allow users to make their misplaced phone ring at its loudest volume even if it is in silent mode.In case you have lost your phone outside your house you will be able to see the device on a map if it is switched on and follow it in real-time. It may help you recover the phone. But in case it can`t be recovered, Android Device Manager will allow users to wipe it securely so that the private data doesn`t fall in wrong hands.
