You can use PanicKit, tile, shortcut or send a message with authentication code. On trigger, using Device Administration API, it locks a device and optionally runs wipe.

Also you can:

  • limit the maximum number of failed password attempts
  • wipe a device when it was not unlocked for N days

The app works in Work Profile too. Use Shelter to install risky apps and Wasted in it. Then you can wipe this profile data with one click without wiping the whole device.
