Three Levels of Protection

Smart motion detection that adapts to different types of movement

Level 1: Nudge

Gentle haptic on your watch when someone touches or slightly moves your phone. Subtle awareness without alarm.

Level 2: Pickup

Strong watch vibration when your phone is lifted or tilted. Someone's picking it up - time to check.

Level 3: Theft

Intense watch alerts plus loud siren on your phone. Rapid movement detected - potential theft in progress.
