How to track the location of your phone if it is turned off or lost
Tracking mobile phone locations is the best technological advantage. If your cell phone was stolen or turned off or your phone was lost, carefully follow the tips to track out the lost phone or switched off, below for Android and iOS phones:
Android
In the case of the Android operating system and in alliance with Google, the mobiles with this system have by default the Android Device Manager option, which works when connected to the Internet.
To track the phone, you only need to enter Android Device Manager with the Google account registered in the lost phone to track the device in real time. This function is active from the first use of the cell phone, so it is of great advantage to use it in cases of loss.
One more point in favor of this tool is that the location of the mobile can be verified not only on the computer but on any other phone, allowing the mobile to be followed once the theft has occurred. However, Google can also order the general deletion of information from the phone to protect the privacy of the user.
IOS
In the case of the iOS operating system that the iPhone, iPad or iPod have, the mechanics are similar. The phone or electronic device includes an application called "Find my iPhone" that has additional measures to retrieve and protect personal information, as long as it is registered on the iCloud site.
What you need to do is log in to the iCloud page or use the "Find my iPhone" app on another Apple phone. When entering the email registered in iCloud, it will automatically open the location of the lost mobile on the map; if it is nearby, a sound can be played to find it.
Also, the application has the function of "Lost mode" where the device is totally blocked with a code and a personalized message, in addition to the location of the device.
