How to Find an Android Phone Using Its Ringer
If your phone is nearby, and you simply can’t see it, Google can help you find it by turning on the ringer. Just select Ring below the map and Google will ring your phone at full volume, even if the ringer on your phone is set to silent. When you hear the ring, pick up your phone and hit the power button to stop the ringing.
Locate Android Phone Using Google Home
If you have a Google Home device, and your Google account is linked to it, you don’t need a computer to find your lost phone. Instead, say, “Hey Google! Where’s my phone?” Google Home will then ring your phone, even if the ringer is set to silent.
What if Your Phone Is Still Lost or Stolen?
If your phone isn’t nearby, and you’re unable to locate it on the map or ring it, Google has additional tools to help secure your personal information until you get the phone back. From the map that located your phone, select Recover. This will take you to several options that will allow you to call your phone, lock it, put a phone number to call on the lock screen, reach out to your carrier, or erase the phone.
