How does Apple locate and retrieve the lost mobile phone?

Iphone is now an indispensable thing in many people's lives, not just a simple communication tool. However, what if the mobile phone is unfortunately lost? As long as there is hope, of course, we must work hard to find it! Apple's products have always been humanized, which provides us with such a convenience. Let's talk about how to help us find the lost Apple phone through positioning. Of course, this method is also applicable to ipod touch or ipad.

NO 1。 Set up your phone.

1 Open the Apple device, see the main interface, and select "Settings".

2 In the drop-down list of setting options, find the item "Mail, Address Book, Calendar" and click Enter.

3 In the setting interface of email, address book and calendar, click and select "Add Account".

4 Select "Moblie ME" as the account type in the second item, then enter your own Apple ID and password (if you don't have an Apple ID, register one in Apple official website first), and then click Next.

After 5, the device will connect to the server to verify that the ID and password are correct. If the verification passes, the terms and agreements of iCloud will pop up, and click Agree to continue. Then Moblie ME will be prompted to turn on the positioning function of the device, and click "OK" to allow it to be turned on, thus completing the setup of the Apple device.

NO2。 Set up the computer

1 Open a browser, navigate to C: \ Windows \ System32 \ Drivers \ etc, find the file named "HOSTS" and open it with Notepad.

Add the following code to the end of the HOSTS file (just press enter at the end and start a new line).

# Apple Google Maps

maps-api-ssl.google.com

maps.gstatic.com

203 . 208 . 46 . 147 MTS 1 . Google . com

mts0.google.com

khms0.google.com

203 . 208 . 46 . 147 khz 1 . Google . com

Finally, click the file above-Save. This step is mainly to enable DNS to correctly parse Google's map server.

Third. Start looking for a cell phone.

1 Open a computer browser and enter iCloud.com in the address bar. Click Sign In, and then enter your own Apple ID and password to sign in to iCloud.

After logging in successfully, you can click "Find My iPhone" at the back.

3 Soon, iCloud will be able to display the address of the current device through satellite positioning, which will help us retrieve the device. Moreover, after the Apple device is lost, we can also remotely perform some operations on it, such as remote erasure and remote locking to send information.

4. Devices can receive commands from iCloud and execute them unconditionally. The whole process is basically completed here. So even if the Apple device is not lost, it must be set up to achieve the above operation.

point out

The positioning function of 1 is actually of little significance for retrieving the equipment. When it cannot be retrieved, the content on the device can be erased remotely to prevent personal privacy from being revealed.

The above functions and operations can only be realized if the devices are networked!

Tips to extend the life of iPhone battery;

1. Develop a good habit of charging.

When Apple's mobile phone prompts that the battery is low, charge it in time to avoid automatic shutdown due to low battery. If the battery efficiency is less than 80%, please try to replace the battery.

2. Upgrade to the latest version of iOS 13.

Apple has added a function called "Optimizing Battery Charging" to iOS 13, which can intelligently learn and judge users' usage and charging habits, and make the charging process more balanced, thus slowing down the aging of the battery and improving the battery life to a certain extent.

How to View: The function of "Optimizing Battery Charging" can be viewed in Settings-Battery-Battery Health ~

3. The background application refresh is prohibited.

Since iOS 7, applications can use battery life when running in the background, and it does. You can see how long the application has been running in the background. If the application runs out of power when not in use, you can disable background application refresh to prevent it from running in the background. If the application consumes too much power, we can also choose to uninstall it!

4. Enable low battery mode

IOS 9 has added a "low power mode" function, which can make the phone more power-saving. When the low battery mode is enabled, your screen will be slightly dimmed, limiting background processes, slightly slowing down the processor, or reducing the energy required by the device during normal use.

How to operate: The easiest way to enable this function is to slide down from the upper right corner of the iPhone, and then click the battery icon. It can also be set in >; Battery > enable low power mode in low power mode.

5. Turn off some app push.

You know, some push notifications, application notifications, email reading notifications and so on. These will shorten the battery life, so if you want to make the battery life of iPhone longer, you'd better turn it off. You can edit each application and turn off notifications in Settings.
