    The last location only seems to be updated whenever the lost phone accesses a google product, e.g. maps; is there a way to have it always transmit its location?

    I done had two phones stolen and this s*** don't work. It show me the location where it was stolen. And there was no phone. Never showed me another location ever again. And it's easy to show me your phone sitting on the counter right there next to you. Leave it at your friend's house across town then show me how to find your device works

      mine used to load me my battery percentage and after it started raining outside it stopped showing and just said cant reach device, but it was still available for call until today i lost it somewhere on the street on 24th february and someone might have picked it up/stole it but i was able to put a secure device with another contact phone even if i also have my PIN set, i hope i will find my phone soon, have you?

    • @annb8296
      @annb8296 Před rokem

      ​@@Shendelzare1 I hope you found your phone. When you did Secure Device did it give you any kind of confirmation that the pin/password successfully locked your phone? I didn't get one. I went back into Secure Device later and it said I didnt have a pin or password on the phone. I don't understand because I had just did Secure Device. I don't know what is happening. No one can be reached at Find my Device app. The thieves have had my phone three days now and I don't know what to do. Everything is on my phone and I don't want them reading and using my data. Alot of my accounts had auto fill passwords too so all they have to do is sign in and they are in. This is so upsetting.

      i believe only if you contacted the police, they will be able to locate the phone trough IMEI provided to them even if the thief inserts new SIM card in to the phone.

    @annb8296 Před rokem

    @GadgetRevNow
    Please answer if you have time as many as you can. I know you don't have time to respond to everyone.
    1) Does find my device give a confirmation after you do the secure device confirming your password was received and the lock is working? I didn't get any message but the password seemed to go through after hitting the secure device button. But how do I know if it did anything or not?
    I went back into Secure Device later and got the same message before that my phone was not locked and needed a pin or password. So I'm not sure what is going on with that. I had a pin # lockscreen with a very easy pin and didn't trust it but why is Secure Device saying I have no pin # on it and also no password now when I just sent the password?
    Also when I first went to find my device it showed an image of my stolen phone but said location not found and there was no battery or wi fi image so I don't know why that is. Is it true that unless Find my Device is enabled on your stolen phone then none of this will work? I don't know if it was or wasn't.
    2) Eventually I did the erase device too and got the message that data will be erased when my phone is off and turned on again. What if a thief never turns it off? Also how do we know again that our device has been erased. It only says it will be when phone is off and turned on again. Do we get some kind of notification when it happens?
    Are there any other ways to delete your data? I am not really technical and it has been three days thieves have had my phone and I'm so upset because so much private info is on it. If you can answer any of this Thank you
