Phones are an essential part of our lives, and you may misplace your device when travelling or that you will leave it at a store or in a cab. If you have an Android phone, you can utilise the Find My Device function to find it. To track your phone using this function, you must activate both the feature and Google's Location Services. In addition, the phone must be switched on and registered into a Google account.
