Find my iPhone is complete useless 99% of the time. When will people figure this out? It's just a great marketing ploy.
Follow along with the video below to see how to install our site as a web app on your home screen.

ive used the app to test if it works. when i tried to locate my phone using my computer it would show an area where you phone is but not the exact address. i didn't know that if your phone is turned off then the app wouldnt work though. my friend who is a cop has had cases where suspects were caught using this app thoughHas anyone ever used the findmyiphone app and successfully recovered their phone?
If the phone is off though the app is useless. Anyone can have it installed but once dudes steal it they probably shut it off right away.
Seriously that locate app thing is crap and useless. Usually once it's gone it's gone

This thread means a lot to me as a bay area resident. First off OP, glad to hear you weren't physically harmed.
The Bay Area is beautiful place, and is regarded by many as the BEST PLACE to live in America when considering quality of life, economic opportunity, etc. Having said that, the Bay Area is one of the Most EXPENSIVE places to live........and it kills me sometimes.
Not trying to turn this into an SF vs Oakland thread but......everyone wants to live in SF these days....EVERYONE. The rich yuppies, the hipsters, the artistic people, the banking professionals, pretty much, SF is the place to be. The rent prices definitely reflect that, and the rent prices are the highest I've ever seen in the city.
Considering the above, a lot of people have logically considered Oakland a good alternative to SF. Oakland is great because:
1) You can get to SF in 15 minutes via public trans (BART) or driving.
2) The weather is better than SF. It's always 10 degrees warmer and clearer skies.
3) Oakland is beautiful.
A lot of the artistically talented people who don't make much money off their craft have moved to Oakland because the cost of SF is so high. As a result, a lot of the real talent that made SF so cool in the early 2000's has left and gone to Oakland. In many ways Oakland now has a lot of the vibrancy and talent that SF has lost replaced by a bunch of rich yuppies and finance people.
But there has always been these kind of things holding Oakland has the POTENTIAL to be a Brooklyn, it really does, it really does [/B], but things like this keep holding it back. I love Oakland and the East Bay in general but I just can't see myself moving back there until these types of things don't happen as frequently.
