Modern cell phones can be major financial investments, containing personal data and other information vital to your everyday life. Losing a device like this can be an extremely frustrating experience. Luckily, most phones come with unique serial numbers, which can be used by authorities to match recovered phones with their owners. Additionally, some phones have operating system features, such as Find My iPhone or Android Device Manager, which can help you view the last known location of your device and set up future notifications. Find My iPhone also records your iPhone’s last known location for up to 24 hours. A grey dot appears on the map after you log into Find My iPhone, indicating the last saved location. These coordinates can help you narrow down your iPhone’s current location. Writer Bio
