Lost Your iPhone? Here's How Your Apple Watch Can Help You Find It!

Lost iPhone Ringing
The Apple Watch is a versatile device that can do much more than simply tell time. 

One of its most useful features is the ability to make and receive phone calls, even when your iPhone is not nearby. 

But what if you misplace your iPhone and need to find it quickly? 

Thankfully, the Apple Watch can help with that too. In this article, we'll show you how to make your iPhone ring from your Apple Watch.

  • Swipe up on the watch face to access the Control Center. UPDATE: (or press the Side button if you're running watchOS 10 or later).
  • Look for the Ping iPhone button, which looks like an iPhone with sound waves emanating from it. 
    • If you don't see it, you may need to add it to the Control Center. 
    • To do this, go to the Watch app on your iPhone, tap My Watch, then tap Control Center. From there, you can add the Ping iPhone button.
  • Once you've located the Ping iPhone button, tap it. 
    • Your iPhone will emit a loud pinging sound, even if it's in silent mode.

Use the Ping iPhone Feature on Apple Watch to Make Your iPhone Ring
  • If your iPhone is not within range of your Apple Watch, you'll receive a message on the watch indicating that it's out of range. 
    • In this case, you may need to physically search for your phone.
  • If your iPhone is nearby, but you still can't find it, try tapping the Ping iPhone button again. 
    • This will cause your iPhone to emit another loud pinging sound, which should help you locate it.
  • If you've tried everything and still can't find your iPhone, you can use the Find My app on your Apple Watch or another device to locate it. 
    • Simply open the app, select your iPhone, and follow the instructions to locate it on a map.
That's it.  Enjoy!
