You can see it in action, in the notification bar, when you download and install a new app. But it isn't disruptive or intrusive, and otherwise runs invisibly in the background.
Tested the location and scream features yet?
I remember a Youtube report of over a year ago of a guy who was carjacked in front of his house, and the thief made off with this guy's phone in the car. So the guy called up Lookout's location service on his PC's screen, called the cops, and gave them a blow-by-blow of the car's position. It was recovered in 7 minutes by the boys in blue.

Which is why carjackers in e.g. South Africa, Mexico, and Brazil simply kill their victims before making off with the car...
