Look, we all know that your mobile phone is probably one of the most precious things you carry around with you, along with your car keys and genitalia coming in at a close third. There are a lot of crazies out there that would love nothing more than to swipe your precious phone so they can use it to call your mom at all hours of the night and respond to your emails by calling everyone a cat-licking Nazi. That’s where Lookout Mobile Security comes in.
Lookout Mobile Security has created an app for Android devices called Lookout. Lookout is a cloud-based security software that protects your device from viruses, malware and spyware as well as offering tools to locate lost or stolen phones. It also offers the ability to backup and restore your data in case your phone meets its ultimate demise and you need to restore your information on a new, much younger device.
Lookout is completely free to download, but Lookout Mobile Security is now offering Lookout Premium which offers new features for those of you who want more advanced security and privacy protection. Lookout Premium offers everything you’d expect from the free version of Lookout, but it also features the new Privacy Advisor, which scans all of your apps and informs you what each app accesses. Lookout Premium also has Remote Lock, Remote Wipe, as well as an enhanced backup & restore which accesses your photos, call history, and contacts.
This is the Lookout ad from Verizon:
Lookout Premium is available now on the Android Market for $29.99, but since we like your face, we’ll tell you what we’ll do. We’ve got 10 copies of Lookout Premium that are literally burning a hole through our pocket, so we’ll be giving away 10 copies of Lookout Premium in 72 hours.
