Not finding your iPhone because it was forgotten or stolen can be stressful. However, there is a way to get your hands on your device again, even when it’s not turned on.
You misplaced your iPhone. Logically, your first instinct is to try to connect your own device, hoping that a well-meaning person accidentally found it. Unfortunately, you are systematically redirected to the smartphone’s voicemail, a sign that the latter is switched off.
No panic. The good news is that there is an easy way to detect the location of your Apple smartphone. And that even if it is not active. Apple devices have search capabilities, but you must first enable them in your settings.
