2. Use a “wireless leash” that vibrates when your smartphone becomes separated from you

1. Password protect your smartphone
2. Label your smartphone to make it easy to return
3. Schedule frequent backups of the data on your smartphone
4. Install a phone-finding app
5. Write down your wireless carrier’s phone number

Making Murphy Cry:

1. Hire a bodyguard to carry your smartphone for you
2. Handcuff your smartphone to you
