Hello,
Is it necessary that the google find my device is being installed on my phone ?

[carolejackson]

Thanks. What if it keeps showing "connecting..." Yours showed the time count once it started connecting. Need to problem-solve why no connect. The internet connection is working on everything else.

Can I find my device if my mobile phone is turned off?

[davidlogon]

What if my phone is off will I be able to make it ring ?

[portman]

If you think it's stolen erase the device immediately. It's very easy to hack into these phones.

[ygbodybuilder]

What if you let it keep ringing and u select secure and erase would it stop the ringing
