The main objective of the App is to alerts you when you walk away from your smartphone, or when your smartphone is walking away from you (being stolen). Once the alert is activated, your smartwatch will vibrate and alert you that you are no longer connected to your phone, (the first few minutes are the most crucial time for you to still find your phone at the place you last left it). You can actually locate your smartphone through your smartwatch as registered at the last location.
WIMP will alert you so you can take action. You never have to wonder where your phone is again! Available for iPhone, this ground-breaking app gives you peace of mind and protects your investment.
Worried about Your Smartphone Being Lost or Stolen? You Need This App!
We rely on our smartphones for everything today – they’re not just for phone calls, they’re for organizing our entire lives. And if something was to happen to your smartphone, you’d feel lost.
That’s where WIMP comes in. WIMP is an app that connects your smartphone to your smartwatch. Here’s how it works:
It alerts you when you walk away from your smartphone or when your smartphone is being stolen. Once the alert is activated, you can actually locate your smartphone through your smartwatch.
Want to turn off WIMP for a little while as you change your phone or put it in a safe place? No problem – you can set the app to “snooze.”
Don’t want to use WIMP on a smartwatch? That’s okay, too. WIMP works on other devices. WIMP on your smartwatch can track another device too - just choose which device you want to track.
Worried about your kids’ smartphones? You should be – they’re an expensive investment, and you don’t want them to get lost or stolen. Download WIMP to their phones and they can keep track of their smartphone with their smartwatch at all times.

Don’t Install (scary)

So just a couple days ago I bought an Apple Watch and thought it would be fun to get some games and apps on it. So I installed this one. But within 10 seconds of using the app it said my phone was being tracked by police and then spammed my notifications saying it was being tracked by police. The app started bugging out so I deleted it and emetietly wrote this review to stop people from installing it.
Never forget your phone

Instead of having your phone lost and then look for it, you can now use this app to warn you and never have your phone lost. Best $5 I spent on app.
Just what I was looking for!

It gives me peace of mind to know that I won’t lose my phone again
Why didn’t I think of it?
DaniB from FL
This is one of those Apps about which you say: “why didn’t I think of it?” And “why did it take so long for someone to come up with it?”. If you’re anything like me and keep leaving your phone on your desk or in your car, then you NEED this App. I wish I had had it installed years ago. I would have avoided the inconvenience of being incomunicado the whole evening and part of the morning because I forgot my phone on my desk; or having to get out of the house at night in my pajamas because I left my phone in car!! And I’m not even talking about leaving it in a public place or having someone steal it from you. That would really be painful!! The app is simple and it just works. It beeps and vibrates on your smart watch when you get separated from your phone far enough for the watch to disconnect. That’s it... perfect! My one suggestion to make the app even better is to shorten the distance (if possible) at which the app will start beeping. Currently, I’m rather far away when my watch disconnects. It would be great to have a choice available - say 100 feet, 200, 300 and “when my watch disconnects”.
So helpful!

WIMP is an excellent app that has saved me from losing my phone more than once. Worth the purchase and definitely an amazing idea!
Didn’t work
garbage through and through
At this point this app is junk. I can’t get it to function on my iPhone 7 Plus unless I leave the app open and on my screen. There is no help Servive that I can find, no phone number or text format that I can find or an email account you can go to. If some one in tech support reads this please provide me with a way to get some support on this thing so I can use it!!!!
Great idea poorly executed

I really wanted this to work, but it doesn't work as described and despite repeated attempts to contact the developer, my requests have gone unanswered. Unless the developer fixes the app or provides detailed instructions that shows that it works, I would not purchase this.
Do not buy

I forgot my phone today( not lose it) and was far away from it and my Apple Watch did not alert me that I was away from my device until 3 hours later when I opened the app. Want my money back.

Allocation must be open in the backyard in order for it to work. This is Apple restroom.
