Locating a Lost iPhone From Verizon via Find My

Apple’s Find My app enables iOS users to locate their devices on a map. The feature is compatible with all Apple products, from AirPods to Apple Watch.

If you want to use the app to track down your lost iPhone, follow these steps:

1. Launch Safari or your preferred browser app
2. Sign in to Find My iPhone with your iCloud
3. Enter your Apple ID when prompted
4. Find your device on the on-screen map (it’ll be marked with a red dot)

Note that if the Location Services feature is turned off, your iPhone won’t show up on the map.

If you think your phone is still nearby, the Find My app can play a sound from the device. Instead of fumbling around, you’ll be able to find your lost Verizon phone by following the signal. Here’s how to activate it:

1. Go to iCloud and sign in to Find My iPhone
2. Open All Devices and then click on your iPhone
3. Select Play Sound

The sound will play for approximately two minutes, with the volume gradually increasing. Keep in mind that if your phone is offline, you won’t be able to use the feature.

How To Track an Android Phone

Whether it’s Samsung or OnePlus, all Android phones have a built-in Find My Device feature. You can use it to locate your lost Verizon phone by completing the following steps:

1. Sign in to your Google account
2. Select your phone from the list of devices connected to your user profile
3. Look at the map to find your phone. Note that the location is merely an approximation
4. Play a sound from your phone at full volume for five minutes. In this case, it doesn’t matter if the device is offline

You won’t be able to use the Find My Device feature if:

• The phone is turned off or disconnected
• You’re not signed in to your Google account
• The Find My Device app isn’t enabled
• The location isn’t on
