1430474 2017-01-06 21:06:00 Don't know about your phone as you have described, but with Android, and as long as you have signed into a google account, or/and the play Store you can go to your main account page, sign in, bottom left - Find your phone, it sets the following automatically unless you turn off the gps. Once it finds it, you can locate it, for example if you left it someplace it gives you a rough location to within about 40Mtrs.

you can also make it ring, and when you do that it goes to full volume even if it had been muted, sound disabled before, and will carry on ringing till you stop it. OR if its really missing completely, you can remotely wipe it.

I occasionally have trouble finding my phone, as it is not used much, I just charge it up and switch it off till I need it.

My son gave me a Chipolo for Christmas, really does the job. A small disc on you keyring given a vigorous shake causes your phone to ring. If it is further afield you can

go on line and locate it through G P S. As an added bonus you can find your keys using your phone as well. Not sure where he got it from.
