Locate your Missing Android Device with Google Search

The Android device manager has been the latest google product to get integrated into Google search. So from now onwards, you can just type in “ Find my phone” into Google search and access the device manager from Google search results itself. However this feature will only work if you are signed in with your Google account which is associated with your android device and the GPS needs to be turned on your android device.

Once your phone is located, you can click on the map to view your phone’s location on the Android device manager page. You can then go ahead and ring, lock or erase the data on your phone.

  • No, doesn’t work. All I get are the usual search results. I’m logged in with the same Google account that both of my Android phones use, and both have GPS enabled.
