Apple cannot locate your phone, but you possibly can if you had Find My enabled on your phone. If the phone is powered on and has an Internet connection, the phone will show up on a map.

Troubleshooting a Lost or Stollen iPhone:

What makes you so certain it was stollen? Perhaps it was lost?


Six tactics to try here...

  • Use Find MyNote that Find My, can only be enabled directly on the iPhone. It cannot be enabled elsewhere. So, if it is not enabled, then that is not an option. Note that it will show up in the latest location is was seen, when connected to  WiFi or a Cellular network.


  • Dial it: See if it is heard ring


  • Ask Local Authorities: See if it has be hanged over.


  • Text It: Ask whomever has come across it, to contact you.


  • Ask Someone: See if someone you know (i.e. Friend, or Family Member) if that came across it.


  • Backtrack your Locations: If you are at a Coffee shop, or a library, stop by and see if it was safely placed asside.
