How to find lost iPhone in UK?

Oh no, your pricey iPhone has vanished. Has it been misplaced? Has it been taken from you? Whatever the issue, there are a few various approaches you can take to solve it. To locate your misplaced device, you can use Apple's Find My app (formerly known as Find My iPhone), an Apple Watch, iCloud, or a family member's iPhone or iPad.

If you suspect your iPhone has been stolen or if you simply don't want it to fall into the wrong hands, you can remotely erase the data on it so that no one else may use it. Here's how to go about it.

Activation Lock and Find my iPhone

In IOS, Apple added a valuable feature called Activation Lock. This is a useful feature because if a third party does not have the password to your iCloud account, your phone would become inoperable. Your phone can be entirely erased, but if you use iCloud and have enabled Activation Lock, no one else can use it.
Because Activation Lock is tied to Find My iPhone, if you have Find My iPhone turned on, your device will also have Activation Lock turned on. If your cellphone is still in your possession, take the instructions below to activate Find My iPhone, which will come in handy if you lose your phone in the future.
To begin, go to Settings > At the top of the page, tap on your iCloud profile > Select Find My iPhone from the menu. If your battery is low and soon to die, tap Send My Last Location (this will send Apple a notification about your device's location).

In the event that your iPhone is lost, the most critical function to activate is Find My iPhone; however, employing a passcode and two-factor authentication is also a good idea.

Find Lost iPhone on the Map

Let's pretend you've misplaced your phone. Start the Find My app on your iPad if you're using iPad OS. Tap Devices in the lower-left corner. The app shows the whereabouts of all of your Apple devices in a list and on a map. If your smartphone is running an older operating system, the Find My iPhone app will launch and will identify and map any registered devices.

Track Down Your iPhone

Tap your iPhone's icon or its entry in the list if it appears on the map. The software then gives you a few options to choose from. To assist you in finding it, tap Play Sound, and your iPhone generates a pinging sonar-sounding noise. A notification for a Find My iPhone Alert also displays on the screen. To acquire driving directions to the device's location, press Directions.

How to Find my iPhone if it has been turned off or offline

If your smartphone has gone missing or has been stolen, and you assume the battery has died or the iPhone has been switched off, “Send Last Location” will help you track it down.
The “Send Last Location” option in the Find My iPhone app sends the last location of your iPhone, which is stored for 24 hours after the battery dies. If you have Sent Last Location turned on, you can see where your iPhone was last before it ran out of battery or was turned off.
To enable Send Last Location, follow these steps.

Go to the Settings menu.
Select Find My iPhone.
Check to see whether Find My iPhone is turned on.
Turn on Send Last Location.

Erase iPhone Data

If you can't find your phone and are worried about your personal information being accessed by the incorrect person, tap Erase This Device. The disadvantage is that an erased phone can no longer be traced on a map, so use this option only if you've given all hope of ever finding your phone.
