# Wasted

Lock a device and wipe its data on emergency.

[](https://f-droid.org/packages/me.lucky.wasted/)

[](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=me.lucky.wasted)



You can use [PanicKit](https://guardianproject.info/code/panickit/), tile, shortcut or send a 

message with a secret code. On trigger, using 

[Device Administration API](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/admin/device-admin), it 

locks a device and optionally runs wipe (factory reset). Or it can send a broadcast message 

instead of the wipe.

Also you can:

* fire when a device was not unlocked for X time

* fire when a USB data connection is made while a device is locked

* fire when a fake messenger app is launched

* fire when a duress password is entered (companion app: [Duress](https://github.com/x13a/Duress))

The app works in `Work Profile` too, but with limitations. Use it to install risky apps and 

`Wasted` in it. Then you can wipe this profile data with one click without wiping the whole device.

For base security take a look at: [Sentry](https://github.com/x13a/Sentry).  

Only encrypted device may guarantee that the data will not be recoverable.

Be aware that the app does not work in _safe mode_.

## Broadcast

* action: `me.lucky.wasted.action.TRIGGER`

* receiver: `me.lucky.wasted/.TriggerReceiver`

* also you have to send a secret code from Wasted with the key: `code`

## Permissions

* DEVICE_ADMIN - lock and optionally wipe a device

* FOREGROUND_SERVICE - receive lock and USB state events

* RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED - persist lock job and foreground service across reboots
