Find and protect a lost device with Find My
Use another Apple device or iCloud.com/find to locate and protect a lost device.
Check its location, play a sound, and use Lost Mode to lock it and display contact information.
Find My must have been enabled on the missing device before it was lost.

Enable Lost Mode if needed
If you cannot find it quickly, mark it as lost or enable Lost Mode and follow the prompts to add contact information.
You are done when you have located the device or enabled Lost Mode as needed.
A device that did not have Find My enabled before it was lost will not appear and cannot be remotely marked as lost. If theft is suspected, do not attempt recovery yourself; contact local authorities or your carrier as appropriate.
