Using a map, Find My shows you where your missing iPhone was last detected. Alternatively, you can visit iCloud’s Find Devices portal and sign in using your Apple ID. Once through, pick your iPhone from the dropdown to see its last logged whereabouts. If it cannot be located, it’ll say “No location found.” If the option to “Notify me when found” is available, make sure you mark it.
Find My can also play a sound on your missing device to help you locate it within your vicinity. If the iPhone shows up on the map in a public place where it may be picked up by strangers, you can turn on Lost Mode:
- Open Find My on an Apple device that you still have in your possession and pick the missing iPhone from the list of devices. You can also sign in to Find Devices and pick the lost iPhone from the dropdown.
- Hit Lost Mode or activate Mark As Lost.
- Follow onscreen prompts that’ll let you display your contact information or a reward offer for the iPhone’s safe return. For safety purposes, do not put your home or work address as a custom message.
With Lost Mode enabled through Find My, you can remotely secure the lost iPhone with a passcode and disable Apple Pay. You can also essentially communicate with whoever chances upon your missing device and encourage them to make an effort to return it to you. Furthermore, when Find My is enabled, it automatically equips your iPhone with Activation Lock, which firmly associates the device to your account. If someone tries to erase data or perform other operations on your iPhone, they won’t be able to reactivate it without your Apple ID password.
