Misplacing your iPhone can be one of the most frustrating experiences ever, and unless you have another device at your disposal to check Find My iPhone, you’d ordinarily be on your own in finding your lost handset.
Misplacing your iPhone can be one of the most frustrating experiences ever, and unless you have another device at your disposal to check Find My iPhone, you’d ordinarily be on your own in finding your lost handset.
One of my favorite anti-theft jailbreak tweaks of all time, No2Theft by iOS developer Elias Sfeir, has been updated this week to take advantage of the rootless dynamic of some of the latest jailbreaks on iOS & iPadOS 15 and 16, such as Dopamine and palera1n.
Losing or having your iPhone or iPad stolen can be a distressing experience, but knowing the right actions to take can help you protect your data, track your device, and report the incident. In this guide, we will share 6 essential steps to follow if you find yourself in this unfortunate situation.
Don’t you just hate it when you’re trying to have a good time and someone tries to walk off with your expansive iPhone? I sure do, and it’s one of the reasons why I stand behind the No2Theft jailbreak tweak by iOS developer Elias Sfeir.
Find My app on iPhone, iPad, Mac, and iCloud lets you locate your missing Apple devices, things attached to AirTag, and third-party supported accessories. When you misplace one of your devices, you can use it on your other device or iCloud.com to locate it. But what happens when you own only one Apple device and, for some reason, cannot use iCloud? In these situations, here's how to find your missing, lost, or stolen device using your friend's iPhone or iPad.
So please do not panic. Meet your friend in person as you would need physical access to their iPhone. And follow the steps in this guide.
With iOS 15 and iPadOS 15, you get time-sensitive left behind notifications if you leave your Apple devices, AirTags, and other Find My-supported accessories accidentally at unknown places. This is possible thanks to the separation alerts you receive after enabling Notify When Left Behind in the Find My app.
It is a helpful, new feature to ensure you do not walk away forgetting your expensive devices and items. Let us show you how to set up and use Notify When Left Behind in the Find My app on iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch. Plus, if you are annoyed by it at your house or known places, we also have the steps to turn it off for all or selected locations.
Chances are you probably wouldn’t like it if someone you knew secretively began tracking your every move via Apple’s Find My service, but would you actually ever know if someone was? Apple unfortunately doesn’t provide any sort of straightforward notification to let you know when your handset is being tracked, but the jailbreak community now offers a solution for that.
Say hello to a newly released and free jailbreak tweak dubbed Chusma by iOS developer Itaybre. Once installed, this tweak provides its users with real-time push notifications whenever anyone begins tracking your iPhone or iPad with Apple’s first party Find My service.
Have you ever misplaced your iPhone somewhere in your home, but had immediate access to a paired Bluetooth device? If so, then you might be excited to learn about a new jailbreak tweak called BlueFinder by iOS developer AnthoPak.
From what we can gather, BlueFinder lets you use a paired Bluetooth accessory to trigger an audible ringing sound on your misplaced handset. This has significant advantages for clumsy folk who consistently drop their iPhone between the sofa cushions or leave their handset somewhere in the house and forget where they put it.
With the iOS 13 and macOS Catalina updates, you can now use the revamped and renamed Find My app to locate family or friends, share your own location, and find a device, all with one handy tool.
Having each of these features in a single spot makes it much easier to find who or what you need faster. If you haven’t checked it out yet, here’s how to use the new Find my app on iOS and Mac.
One of the many new announcements Apple made at this year's WWDC keynote was a change to the "Find My" service. The company has officially merged its two previous versions of the app into one, and made it even more useful and powerful as a result.
The Find My service is terrific for locating your device when you can’t. You can use it from another device, on the web with iCloud.com, or with your HomePod to find your missing devices. But did you know you can also use it with your Apple TV?
So, if you’re hanging out watching a movie or playing a game on Apple TV and suddenly wonder where your iPhone, iPad, or MacBook went, then here’s how to use your Apple TV to play a sound and find the misplaced device.
