Lost iPhone + Sim Card Removed But With ” This Feature” Netizen Finds His Phone!

A lot of Apple fans insist using iPhone, one of the main reason will be the built-in security and privacy protection.

For example, Find My iPhone feature – it’s a unique feature for Apple. You can use Find My iPhone on iCloud.com to find the approximate location of your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac, Apple Watch, AirPods, and Beats product if Find My is set up and the device is online. Never look down on this feature as it helps to find a netizen’s lost iPhone!

A Malaysian iPhone user took social media to share his experience where his phone was stolen when he dine-in a restaurant. Ended up, through ‘Find My iPhone’ feature he managed  to get back his phone.

The post read:

I can’t help but to praise on the feature of “Find My iPhone”.

The story begin with … i went to a cafe with my family for some dessert. In between, i went to washroom then back to our table to continue to eat. In less than 5 mins, i realised my phone was left in the washroom. Immediately, i went back to the washroom to look for my phone. But unfortunately the phone is gone.

Not much people in the cafe during that time. I found a table with 3 Chinese went off even food half-way eating. I turned on the lost mode immediately to locate my phone.

At that moment, my iPhone was turning off. The sim card was removed too. But still every 10 mins will have an updated location. Me and my friends went to police station to lodge a report.

It was close to 12 midnight. I managed to locate the phone. 5 Policemen went with us, we didn’t know where exactly the phone located. So we need to ring the doorbell 1 by 1. We tried a few houses and they said they never took my phone. The policemen ended the operation.

When i was home, something struck my mind. I think i should checked my dash cam as not much car during the time we visited the cafe. I recorded down the vehicle and continued to use Find My Phone for the latest location to look for the similar vehicle.

Then i went to ring the door bell again. A 30-year-old lady came to answer the doorbell. We were asking her :「 Did you accidentally took an iPhone when you dine-in a cafe?」30-year-old lady「No!」Me「I lodged a police report. If you are still denying, i will call the police and get them to come back.」

Then she claimed her husband took a phone outside the cafe. I asked them where is the sim card. But, she said when they took the phone it’s already without the sim card. Then i thought as long as i managed to get back then it’s ok. As i’m the one that are careless in the first place.

So, even though they removed the sim card. As long as i have another Apple device then i can used the network to share the location.

▼ “What a cool feature, Apple!” , ” Do not turn off this feature. Even someone stole the phone  also you won’t be able to use the device.”

▼ I experienced the same too. Someone took my phone and turned off the phone, but i managed to locate it.

▼ Netizen A: Greedy! Don’t admit her wrongdoing.

Netizen B: I don’t understand why still don’t want to return the phone. I used to pick up someone’s phone and waiting for them to call to return the phone.

Netizen C: I’m sure the lady thought she got a free phone and wanted to use it herself.

▼ Q: How to activate the feature ? I’m new to iPhone. Don’t know why my family can’t locate my phone.

A: Just follow the instruction. First go to setting-> then accept terms & conditions then it will login to your account and will be able to detect your location.

▼ Other than Find my iPhone feature, Dash cam also played important part to locate the phone.
