Lost my phone Mon. morning looked everywhere no luck and remembered a mate had used the Find My Phone App so I gave it a try.
Just had to enter my Apple Id & pw next thing a Google image came up and there it was half way along the dog beach where I had been an hour ago.
Quickly walked back down the beach because the tide was coming in and a nice young lady just picked it up and handed it to me.

Yeh its pretty handy!

I had 2 blokes steal a bunch of apple products (before I knew better ) and we gave chase whilst tracking them but a vq stato was too fast for a slow tradies ute. Old mate got 18months for armed robbery and theft lol.

Imagine tracking the mrs and finding out shes bangin some other dude

I've caught my wife out when i've left work and she says I'm at yard now. Only to check and she is still at the coffee shop

I had a friend who nocked on a door that showed his phone was their. Dad denied it and he showed him the app, son ended up getting a flogging id guess by the embarrassed dad. So yeah it works. Also With iPads it can take pictures of the people and send them to your cloud account i think

Yeah bloke at work dumped his phone in the back of the wife's car when she was going for "coffee with the girls". Followed her on the iPad.
Ended up being more than coffee and not with the girls.

He now see the kids on weekends

No need for a private investigator these days.

Yep. Anyone on the same iTunes account can find it. Few spouses have found that out the hard way.
Maybe Apple can do it too...?

Or if like me you bought a secondhand computer even though it was cleaned really well by a pro, the first iPhone plugged in synced as the last PC owner so could find him too.

Yeah love the modern "essentials".
They're tops.
