    I'm looking for an app that works similar to Apple's MobileMe "Find My iPhone" function.

    I've come across several that seem to fit what I'm looking for but I just wanted a few suggestions. Similar to the MobileMe service, it would be cool if there is an Android app that:

    • Tracks my phone and finds its location using GPS
    • Locks my phone remotely
    • And sends messages to it remotely

    Thanks in advance for any suggestions...

    MyLookout.com...it works well for me. Scans, tells you where your device is located via webpage (google maps) and can set off a siren on your phone if you are trying to find it within you house (even if your phone is silenced if will turn the sound on for you). If you GPS is off, it will auto switch it on so you can locate your phone.

    You can lock the phone so no one can use it (premium only).

    It has worked good for me so far. :) Let us know if you find something better.

    Lookout Mobile Security is my choice. It drains a lot of battery though...
