I recently downloaded the preycontrol software as a safety measure if my macbook pro would be stolen or lost. The software has the ability to secretly send information about where my mac is, what the thief are browsing, and even take a picture of the thief and send me, among other things.
I tested the tracking function out on myself and got unsatisfying results. Instead of using some sort of GPS interaction with the computer, it showed me where the nearest hotspot was. It gave me a error margin of up to half a mile. Then the service is pretty useless right?
I remember my friend showed me an app to his iphone where he could see exactly where the phone were located. Now, how do i get the same result on my macbook pro? is there any software that connect to the GPS system so i get the exact spot where my computer is through preycontrol if it's been stolen?
