Gotya! App

A while ago, I bought an app called Gotya!. This app as far as i know was great. Configurable, if a person picked up my device, and tried to unlock it, it will very discreetly take a selfie of the potential intruder and send it to my google drive, gmail or text it to a different number. It had a bunch of information that would allow me to either recover my phone, like gps locations etc.

The app is no longer being offered in the market.

I recently had to reset I was able to back up the apk, and when I try to re-enable the app, I get a red screen error. Can someone assist me on how to fix this? I have attached an image of the error.

There's an app called something like 'app password lock' that takes a picture of the person if they get it wrong.

Likely can't fix that, as it looks like the app publisher's Google back-end service has been ceased, as well as the client app pulled from Play. So I guess they've discontinued it.
 
Mikedt,

Thank you for the input. Do you know, and can recommend an app that when the wrong password is entered, it sends a notification?

Intruder selfie & intruder selfie alert (basically all the ones that I can find in the play store) do not work all the time.

Thank you

Sluggers.

Thank you for your suggestion. Are you referring to the app called AppLock? I had installed this before, and it would not let the phone go to sleep, hence the battery drained super fast. I put an image of the app that I tried.

I am thinking that I might have a loosing battle here.

thank you again sluggers

What was wrong with it? It just has a password for your apps, I guess the problem is people could just uninstall it if they were really trying to get in 🙄
