## Why?
There is already Google Find My Device, but I wanted to develop a free and open source alternative (even tho it is suggested to keep Google's, unless you do not have Play Services and/or wanting to go full-in about privacy). There is already a good FOSS alternative, [Find My Device](https://gitlab.com/Nulide/findmydevice), but wanted to change it a little. I did [fork](https://www.github.com/xfarrow/FindMyDevice) it, but eventually decided to create my own project.
## Beware of malwares
GitHub's releases page is the only place where I am uploading apks.
