The easiest way to find my lost phone is here

Whether you’re on AT&T, T Mobile, or another mobile carrier, it’s easy to locate a lost phone with Detectico. Because the phone locator service doesn’t require you to install an app, there are no hoops to jump through to locate your lost Android. Even if your phone is stolen on the same day that you’ve purchased it (before you had a chance to set it up), Detectico can help you locate it.

To start using Detectico, the missing phone doesn’t have to be powered on or connected to the Internet. Detectico works in your web browser. Just punch in your phone number, set a message, add a reward if you want, and send your message. While you won’t be able to locate your phone if it’s turned off, as soon as it’s powered on and connected to a network, it’ll receive your message. Once the person holding your phone taps the link in your message, you’ll know where the phone is.

Detectico costs just pocket change to use. You’d be hard-pressed to find a lost Android or iPhone for free using the same method as Detectico. If you want a free method to track lost phone, consider calling your Uber or Lyft driver for help. It should be noted, however, that this method only works if you’ve lost your phone in a rideshare car. And even then, there’s no guarantee that your driver will give it back.

Yes, Detectico works exactly this way. Instead of having to install an app on your phone when you first get it, Detectico works by sending your phone a message. It’s a fast and easy way to find my device location by number, anywhere in the world. If your iPhone or Android can receive text messages and it has an IMEI number (all phones do, for the record), then you can track it.

Yes, we designed our app to track lost phone by number so that it works on all phones with any operating system. And it doesn’t matter if you have the latest operating system installed or you haven’t hit that Software Update button in years. Detectico is designed to track a lost or stolen phone with ease.

Quite the opposite. There’s nothing to install on your phone in advance. It’s literally as easy as entering your phone number and a message. Then just wait for the person who found your phone to open the link and you’ll know where your phone is.

Most lost phones are just that — lost or misplaced. But if a thief does get your hands on your phone, they might be more enticed by your reward than the prospect of having to sell your phone on the black market. And no one says you actually have to follow through on handing over that reward. The goal is to find out where your missing phone is. So, whether you know you misplaced your phone or you’re confident it’s been stolen, you can find my device location by phone number and count on Detectico to help you get it back.
