To search for a lost device, use another device, open a web browser and login at https://www.icloud.com/ with your AppleID, then use the find my iPhone app in iCloud.


The find my iPhone iOS app has nothing to do with making a device trackable though. To be trackable, the lost device must have find my iPhone enabled under its iCloud account settings. It also must have location services enabled, be powered on, and be connected to the internet (WiFi or cellular data - doesn’t matter which, but remote tracking is done via an internet connection).
