Apple iOS 15 tips and tricks: What happens when you mark a device as lost

In this article, we will tell you what happens when you mark a device as lost in Find My.

“Find My” is an app and service provided by Apple Inc. This feature allows you to connect your iOS devices so that you can find them in case they got lost.

You can use the Find My app to locate and play a sound on a missing iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac, Apple Watch, AirPods, or Beats headphones. To locate a device, you must turn on Find My [device] before it’s lost.

Things that happen when you marked a device as lost:

  1. A confirmation email is sent to your Apple ID email address.
  2. You can create a message for the device that says it’s lost and how to contact you.
  3. For an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac, or Apple Watch, your device doesn’t display alerts or make noise when you receive messages or notifications, or if any alarms go off. Your device can still receive phone calls and FaceTime calls.
  4. For an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Apple Watch, you see your device’s current location on the map as well as any changes in its location.
  5. For applicable devices, Apple Pay is disabled, and any credit or debit cards set up for Apple Pay, student ID cards, and Express Transit cards are removed from your device. Credit, debit, and student ID cards are removed even if your device is offline. Express Transit cards are removed the next time your device goes online.
