Finding a Lost iPhone, without Find My:

Unless you have a third-party app, then you can't. You can contact your carrier, and have them disable the SIM or eSIM card in it.


I. Use these Links:


II. Do So the Olde Fashioned Ways:

A. Backtrack your Locations:

Do it the olde fashioned way and backtrack your locations. For instance, if you were at a retail store, then stop in, asking the store manger if it was placed aside.


B. Lost-&-Found:

Chick with the Lost & Found department of the facility you were in, seeing if it has been handed over.


C. Contact Local Authorities:

See if the community police, or local security guards at the front door, came across it.


D. Use Craigslist:

Put a post on Craigslist, seeing if they have been found.


Secure your Accounts:

When it comes to Accounts, you should modify the credentials every-so-often, for security purposes.

A. Verify Your Devices:

Verify that your the devices logged in to your account or officially yours, by using this link: Check your Apple ID Device List to See where you're Signed in - Apple Support


B. Consider Modifying your Credentials:

Having been stollen, someone likey has your credentials. So, by all means, consider modifying them, starting with a new password.
