Users can then start gathering evidence about their lost device-including pictures and screenshots, a log of an active nearby Wi-Fi, location coordinates, the media access control or MAC and IP (internet protocol) addresses to confirm if it is their device. Google has added a new Find your phone section to the My Account page for your Google account. The “evidence reports" option kicks in once you mark a device “missing" in Prey’s online panel. You can set up “control zones" on your device to detect if it moves in or out of a certain area. The app lets you manage multiple devices at the same time. First, you need to set up a Prey account and list all your devices that you want to track. Prey is a third-party security app which comes with the same features as the first two apps, but also provides additional options. However, Find My iPhone must be enabled in the iCloud settings of your device before you can use the app to locate it. This also extends to other Apple devices like the Apple Watch and Macs. You can remotely lock it, play a sound to make it discoverable in case it is nearby, display a message, or erase all the data on it. Find My iPhone will help you locate your missing device on a map. All you need to do is install the app and sign in with the same Apple ID you use for iCloud. There’s a similar service on iOS which lets you use any iOS device to find your phone and protect your data.
