Ways to find your lost Note 9

First of all, I would like to say sorry for your great loss. But now that your phone is lost, let’s try our best to find it.

There are two services that are activated as soon as you set up your phone. One is Samsung’s Find My Mobile and the other is Google’s Find My Mobile. Both these services work with your respective accounts. For example, when you set up your new Galaxy Note 9, it asks you for a Google Account and a Samsung Account. It’s always important to set up these accounts. There are great chances that you have set up one of these accounts because, without them, the phone would look dull.

The other thing that you have to be sure of that your phone has an active internet connection. Both the services that I mentioned above, require an internet connection to work on. If there is no internet connection active on your phone, it will not be possible to track it.

The last thing that you need to take into account is a screen lock. If your phone was protected by a screen lock, no one will be able to turn it off, turn off the internet or remove the Find My Mobile service.

So to sum it up, these are the things that will make it possible for you to locate lost Note 9.

• The phone must have Google or Samsung Account activated.
• There must be an internet connection working on the phone.
• A screen lock protection must be applied to the phone.
• Your Galaxy Note 9 must not be on silent.
