How To Find Someone Else's iPhone When It's Lost

The iPhone Find My app is a great tool to find a misplaced, lost, or even stolen iPhone. While it is most commonly used to locate your own devices, you can also find someone else’s iPhone using this feature. The new Find My app allows you to help a friend find their iPhone, since it now cleverly combines the Find My iPhone and Find My Friends functions that Apple released previously.

Help someone else find their iPhone (or find your own iPhone from someone else's iPhone) by following these simple steps: * Open the Find My app. * Select Me from the options on the bottom of the screen.   * Tap on Help a Friend at the very bottom. This will open iCloud.com. * Have your friend sign in to iCloud using their Apple ID to see their devices.   * If the lost device appears to be nearby, you can tap Play Sound to help you locate it. * If the lost iPhone is far away, you can tap Lost Mode to help protect the data on the phone and automatically turn on Low Power Mode to give you more time to search.   * I don't recommend deleting everything from the iPhone with the Erase iPhone button unless you're sure it's in danger and the private data is at risk of being stolen but you have no other way of preventing it. To help make this decision, you can read up on what Lost Mode does, and see if it will do an adequate job of protecting the compromised iPhone. Now that you know how to find someone else's lost iPhone, you'll be very popular with your more forgetful friends!
