Click here for information; in addition, post notices around where you lost it, and if applicable, contact the Lost & Found department of the facility involved.


The serial number can only be used to check if an already-found iPhone is yours, and the wireless carriers generally only locate phones through the IMEI as part of the search for missing people.
