I made WatchDog because I was tired of the little wave of panic every time I had to leave my MacBook on a cafe table to grab a coffee or run to the restroom.
Here is how it works. You arm it before you step away. If someone touches or moves your Mac, it sounds a loud alarm and pings your iPhone right away, so you can turn around and catch it in the moment. There is a small companion app for your iPhone called WatchDog Key that arms and disarms it for you, and it knows when you are nearby over Bluetooth, so it stays quiet while you are sitting right there.
Most theft tools only help you find your laptop after it is already gone. I wanted the opposite. Something that makes a scene the second someone reaches for your Mac and scares them off before they get out the door.
Arming and the proximity check work offline over Bluetooth. You only need internet to get the alert on your phone. And it never touches your files or anything on your Mac. It just watches the laptop, not you.

WatchDog is one of the few Mac anti-theft tools that reacts in the moment instead of after the fact. Most options only help you locate your Mac once it is already gone. WatchDog sounds a loud alarm and pings your iPhone the instant someone touches or moves your MacBook, locks the screen, and resists quick shutdown attempts, so a thief gets noticed before they can walk away.

Trackers like Find My and Prey are recovery tools that help you chase your Mac after it is stolen. WatchDog is a deterrent. It makes a scene the second someone reaches for your laptop, which is what actually stops a grab in a busy cafe or library. You arm it with a tap, it works offline over Bluetooth, and it never touches your files.

People who work on a MacBook in public. Students in libraries, remote workers and freelancers in cafes, and digital nomads in coworking spaces. Anyone who has to leave their laptop on a table to grab a coffee or use the restroom and wants to step away without worrying it gets taken.

I work out of cafes and coworking spaces, and I could never relax when I had to leave my MacBook to grab a coffee or use the restroom. Find My only helps after your Mac is already gone. I wanted something that reacts in the moment, so I built WatchDog. You arm it, step away, and if anyone touches your Mac it sets off a loud alarm and pings your phone right away.
