Part 2. How to Track My iPhone with the Serial Number

Record the serial number of every device you have—especially your cell phone. Your phone constantly transmits its serial number to the provider's network,. Enter the serial number or phone IMEI number and find out detailed information, specifications and check it in a database of lost or stolen phones. It is not possible for you to track or locate a lost or stolen iPhone via the IMEI or serial number. Find My iPhone is the only way you can track or locate a lost or stolen iPhone: If Find My iPhone was not enabled on your iPhone before it was lost or stolen, then there is no way for you to locate it.

It is ideal to record the serial number immediately you purchase a new device such as an iPhone. Know that your phone constantly transmits the same serial number to the provider’s network, making it easy for them to trace the phone in the event that it goes missing.
