- Wifi autoconnect – Prey will attempt to connect to a wifi to send the necessary information.
- Powerful report system – Will take a screenshot of the desktop or a picture of the thief via the build in web cam.
- Messaging/alert system – Send a message which will appear on the screen together with a loud alarm to the thief.
