Pros
Cons
iTag Android App aims to help you find your Android phone is lost or stolen. It does this mostly but at the cost of a lot of bugs and user experience issues. Let’s address the bad first then the good.
The Bad; it forces close at random often, it adds to battery drain as it seems like a run-away process app (can’t exactly pin point it but I started having those issues after installing the app… this is just speculation), for many users whom replaced their default home screen (with apps like aHome, Open Home or SlideScreen, etc.) it asks to be the default home… overriding your customized home screen.
The Good; like other remote phone finding apps it helps you locate exact position via GPS, backup data in scheduled intervals and restore if needed, remotely lock the key pad if stolen, and send friends your location or request theirs provided they have iTag installed and allow it in Privacy settings.

Using a stealthy app to help find a lost r stolen phone is always infinitely useful. iTag has a unique feature when your friends have the app installed and allow you to access their location; for example it can be used if your phone in a coffee shop near a friend… you can use the web portal to see how close the friend is and SMS text them from the computer to grab your phone for you.
If you can get past registration, operating the app is straight-forward. Simple toggle controls happen on the device whereas more control is offered on www.iTag.com website.
Intended for use if you lose or misplace your phone.

Another con: US only
I’m not a fan. I just had to delete this app because it would wear down my Nexus One’s battery life to like 6 hrs. Random crashes all the time, and frankly, its not all that useful as a finder application, like for an app that’s always running, it seems strange that it so rarely updates the location of your phone.
