Recovery
Find my device
In Turkish: Cihazımı bul
A built-in service from Apple or Google that shows a lost phone on a map and lets you lock it or erase it from afar.
It must be turned on before the phone is lost. When it is on, you can sign in from another device or a computer, see the last known location, play a sound, lock the phone with a message, or erase it.
A screen lock buys time, not safety. Locking the device remotely and then blocking the SIM and changing key passwords closes the main doors within minutes.
What to do
- Check today that the find-my-device feature is on, and that you know the account it uses.
- If the phone is lost, lock it remotely first, and only erase it when you are sure it will not come back.
- Then call your operator and change your email and bank passwords from another device.
