Phones have become so much a part of our daily lives that it can be immediately traumatic if you suddenly can\u2019t find your phone \u2014 whether you\u2019ve left it in a cab, accidentally dropped it out of your pocket, or lost it under your bed. If you have an Android phone, you can use the Find My Device feature to (hopefully) locate your phone.<\/p>\n

Find My Device depends on two things being enabled: the feature itself (of course) and Google\u2019s Location services. In addition, the phone also has to be turned on and signed in to a Google account.<\/p>\n

The Find My Device feature comes as part of the standard OS on Pixels and several other Android phones and is usually turned on by default. Be aware that some Android models may offer a different app; for example, Samsung phones have their own Find My Mobile<\/a> app.<\/p>\n

If you want to use Google\u2019s Find My Device, you can check to see if it\u2019s part of your phone\u2019s version of Android.<\/p>\n
