Apps to find your phone
Once you have logged into your Google account, you will need to find your device. To do this, go to Find My Device and type in the device’s name or model number. You can also use the search bar on the top of the page to find devices by their location or type in a specific keyword. Once you have found your device, you will need to enter its information. This information will include its name, model number, and location. You can also enter in any other information that you want, such as pictures or videos of the device. After you have entered all of the information for your device, you will need to click on “Sign In” at the top of the page. This will take you to a page where you will need to create a new account and provide your email and password. Once you have created an account and provided your email and password, you can start tracking your device. You can track devices by their location or by their activity data. You can also track devices by their battery life or by how many calls they have made recently. If everything goes well, after a few weeks your device should be located and tracked on Google’s site.
If you’re connected to just one device, the left-hand side of the website will list that device and all of its associated features. If you’re connected to more than one device, the website will list them all at once, with the correct device listed first.

- Click on “Track Phone” to see how many calls and texts have been sent and received on your phone this month.
- Click on “Stats” to see how many minutes and hours have been used this month.
- Click on “My Phone” to see how your phone is performing this month.

What can you do after locating your phone?
Google has a number of ways to help you find your device if it’s lost or stolen. You can try Play Sound, Secure Device, and leave a message for someone who finds the phone.
