Finding, locking or erasing a lost device

Google oers a location and security web service called Find my device. After you have signed in to a Google account, Find my device is turned on by default. If you lose your device, you can use Find my device to:
• Find and show where your device is located on a map.
• Lock your device and present a message on the lock screen.
• Unlock your device and reset it by erasing its content.
• Activate the ringer, even if the sound is turned o.
Your device must be turned on, have an internet connection, and have the location service activated. The Find my device service may not be available in all countries or regions.
For additional information about Find my device, go to
support.google.com/
Note
If you erased the content on your device using Find my device, you must enter the username and pas any Google account which you have set up on your device as an owner. If you can’t give this information during the setup, you won’t be able to use your device at all after a reset.

Using location services

L
ocation services allow applications such as Maps and the camera to use information from your mobile or Wi-Fi network as well as GPS (Global Positioning System) information to determine your approximate location. If you’re not within a clear line of sight to GPS satellites, your device can determine your location using the Wi-Fi function. And if you’re not within range of a network, your device can determine your location using your mobile network.
In order to use your device to nd out where you are, you need to enable location services.
Note
You may incur data connection charges when you connect to the internet from your device.
T
o enable or disable location services
1 Find and tap Settings > Lock screen & security > Location.
2 Tap the switch to enable or disable location services.
Improving GPS accuracy
The rst time you use the GPS function in your device, it can take a few minutes for your location to be found. To help the search, make sure you have a clear view of the sky. Stand still and don’t cover the GPS antenna. GPS signals can pass through clouds and plastic, but not through most solid objects such as buildings and mountains. If your location isn’t found after a few minutes, move to another location.
