Sync your contacts and protect your mobile with Yougetitback.

Just back from a visit with Yougetitback founders Paul Prendergast and Frank Hannigan. They are celebrating the release of their companies mobile application.

The application which backs up your contacts and secures your phone was released late last week and the Cork lads are quietly pleased.

Mobile Superhero is a clever piece of software that allows you to lock your phone remotely if you lose it and also allows you to back-up your contacts and store them securely in your own private online vault. In the event that your phone is lost or stolen our Mobile Superhero will help to re-unite you with the finder.

How does it work?

1. Register for the product
2. Download Mobile Superhero software to your phone
3. Install on your mobile
4. Backup your contacts to our secure Vault
5. Should you lose your phone you can lock the phone remotely
6. We help get your phone back to you

With over 2 million phones lost in the UK in 2005 the market for Yougetitback’s product is limitless.

“With over 2 million phones lost in the UK in 2005 the market for Yougetitback’s product is limitless.” Yes but only a small fraction of those could run this app.

Met these guys a couple of years ago through Voda and they have a great idea - hopefully they can figure out a way to get the telcos to offer it as standard on all handsets as part of the bill or something.
Sort of service we could all use.

Nokia phones only look like Symbian Series 3 which is a pity though - although contradicting above, I’m not sure how much the bumbly phone/texters would care about this……

Hi,

Paul here from yougetitback.com !

Thanks for the mention Pat- appreciated.

A heads up on our plans.
We are in the middle of development for a number of operating system which will widen the number of phones we cover.
Re symbian it is v2 & v3 s60.

Appreciate any feedback if you decide ( or are able) to download the software.

Interesting idea, but where exactly is the data stored?
