Not finding your iPhone, because it was forgotten or stolen, can be stressful. However, there is a way to get your hands back on your device even if it is not on.
You lost your iPhone. Logically, your first instinct is to try to join your own machine, hoping that some well-meaning person will find it by chance. Unfortunately, you are systematically redirected to the voicemail of the smartphone, hinting that the latter has been turned off.
Don’t panic. The good news is that there is an easy way to find out where your Apple smartphone is. And this is even if the latter is inactive. Apple devices have search functionality, but you need to enable it in Settings first.
How to find out where your iPhone is: instructions
- Go to your iPhone’s Settings menu
- Click on your name
- Select the “Locate” tab.
- Click on “Find My iPhone”
- Turn on the ‘Find My iPhone’, ‘Find Network’ and ‘Send Last Location’ switches
- Log in to your iCloud account
- Click on the “Select Location” icon in the main menu
- See your iPhone’s last location on a map
