The Find my iPhone app can be particularly useful if your iPhone or iPad is lost or stolen, as it can pinpoint the device's exact geographical location. But if you haven't enabled it and lose your device, what steps should you follow?

  1. First, change your Apple ID password remotely to prevent anyone else from accessing your iCloud data, messages and other apps.
  2. Change your passwords for apps you had on your mobile or tablet, e.g. your email, facebook or ebanking passwords.
  3. You should immediately report the loss or theft of your device to the local police. The authorities will find your device's serial number.
  4. Report the loss of your device to your mobile network provider so they can deactivate your account and prevent anyone else from making calls or sending messages from your phone number.
  5. Remove your lost device from the list of trusted devices
