Stolen iPhone So today my iPhone was stolen and stupidly I had not enabled "Find my iPhone" so there was no way to trace it or remote wipe it. I logged into iCloud through my PC and changed my Apple ID password and removed the iPhone from my Apple ID. I'm not exactly tech-savvy, but my intention was to stop any potential access to my data on my iPhone. However now I feel that I just made life easier for the theives by removing all my data and practically giving them a fresh phone that they can use their own Apple ID on, but I'm not sure and wanted to see if that is the case? I know I cannot do anything about it now so oh well but just curious to know if I did the right thing. Thanks.

Stolen phone, no apple ID Hello, My mom lost her phone and I have been able to track it via location sharing/ find my iphone. It looks like it was stolen and has been moving around. Is there a way to lock it? She does not know her apple ID password and phone is needed to change it, so she can not lock it via find my iphone. What should we/she do?

You can't track it.

Ask your carrier to blacklist is so no one else can use it.
