Have a Verizon Wireless smartphone? Is it insured? Now you’re even more covered.
Verizon introduces their Mobile Recovery plan to customers who subscribe to their Total Equipment Coverage Program run by Asurion. Here are some of the benefits of Mobile Recovery.
Sound Alarm — Have your smartphone trigger an alarm so you can find it, even if it is in silent or vibrate mode.
Locate Phone — Phone outside audible range from Sound Alarm? Use GPS to locate your phone with an address, a map, or turn by turn directions.
Secure Phone — Lock or wipe your device remotely if you cannot locate it quickly.
Mobile recovery is available to select smartphones covered under the Total Equipment Coverage Plan, which would include Verizon’s Android phones as well. But if you don’t have the Asurion insurance package, you’re out of luck.
Supported Android phones on the plan are:
HTC DROID Incredible
HTC Eris
LG Ally
Motorola Devour
Motorola DROID
Motorola DROID 2
Motorola DROID X <--
Samsung Fascinate
