Phone does not plays sound when I locate it via Find My Iphone
hello!
so i page my phone a lot, i misplace it all over the house and Find My Iphone app. it is a lifesaver. last week i paged it because i knew it was in the car somewhere and it did not make a sound. eventually i located it and it was connected to cell, to wifi, and the ringer was on. the app on my ipad which i use to locate it will say “PLAY SOUND: Playing” even though it is not making a sound. and it will reset within 10 seconds back to “PLAY SOUND: off” button as if asking me to push it again. i’m sitting next to my phone the entire time, and it’s not playing a sound at all. all i get is a pop up that says “FIND MY IPHONE ALERT” with 3 short vibrates, but this is not what i’m looking for. i want it to do what it used to do… i want it to page it with the high pitched sonar it used to.
i have restarted my phone, it is fully updated, i have agreed to new icloud conditions.
help please!!!

, set the Ring/Silent switch so that the switch shows orange. To turn off silent mode, set the switch back.
