Sanchar Saathi App: If your phone has ever been lost or stolen, then you know that the biggest worry in such a situation is your personal information inside the phone falling into the wrong hands. But now the solution to this problem has been found by the government. Sanchar Saathi app has been specially created for this reason so that every user can keep his phone safe and incidents of theft can be prevented. This app not only helps in blocking the phone but also provides many such features which completely neutralize the thieves.

Facility to instantly block stolen or lost phones

The biggest feature of Sanchar Saathi is to block the phone in one click. As soon as you go to the app and mark your phone as “Lost/Stolen”, the IMEI number of the phone gets blocked on all the telecom companies across the country. Meaning no one can use that phone by inserting another SIM in it. For a thief that phone becomes equivalent to a brick.

Powerful option to track phone location

Once you block the phone, every usage of the phone can be tracked. If a thief tries to remove the block or change the SIM, the location is directly transmitted to the police and relevant agencies. This feature increases the chances of recovering a stolen device manifold.

Fake call from Chakshu feature

Nowadays, fraudulent calls, WhatsApp messages and fake SMS have become a threat to everyone. The Chakshu feature in Sanchar Saathi lets you immediately report any suspicious mobile number or scam message. The government and telecom companies block the numbers of scammers on the basis of this data.

How many mobile numbers are there in your name?

Many times, SIM cards are issued by fraudsters in our name without our knowledge, which are later used for wrongdoings. Inside this app, you can see how many numbers are active in your name in just one click and if you see any suspicious number, you can report it immediately.

Check the authenticity of the phone with KYM (Know Your Mobile)

If you are thinking of buying a second-hand phone then the KYM feature is very important. This tells whether the IMEI of the phone you are buying is genuine or not. Sanchar Saathi gives instant alert if the phone is stolen, blocked or running on duplicate IMEI.
