In order for Apple to track the location of the phone, you would have had to set up the Find My feature on the phone. Unfortunately, that was not possible if the phone was lost before you could set it up.


If you provided a serial number or IMEI number to the police, and it matches with a phone that has been turned in by an honest person, the police will contact you.
