An example of such application is SmartPhone Tracker (or SmartTracker). SmartPhone Tracker is a freeware application and can be used by everyone who owns a smartphone and optional the phone has to have an internet connection. So, if for example your smartphone has been stolen, you surely would like to know where the person who stole it is located in at time. So, if you have installed on your smartphone the SmartPhone Tracker application, you can simply send a message to your phone, a message set to activate the application. This message can be understood like a wake-up message for the application. If your phone will receive the text message you set to activate the application, the phone will immediately send you back a text message or an email containing its actual coordinates of location, using the Google Map.

For example, if your message set for application is "where you are?" the application will be activated, and with the help of Google Map application will search for location coordinates, and will send them to you by SMS or Email. Isn't it absolutely wonderful?

The SmartPhone Tracker application uses features like: remote operation by SMS Code and remote image capture; It doesn't support only Google Map but also Yahoo Map and WindowsLive Map; detects SIM replacement and provides notifications; supports Map view; it can send location coordinates by SMS or Email and sends also the display of location on the Map, and works very well both on GSM or CDMA.
