How Can I Track a Lost or Stolen AT&T U-Verse Phone?

If your phone is stolen or lost there are measures you can take to locate it. The built-in GPS system on your phone can be used to call the phone and locate it. You can also use third-party apps that were installed on your phone before it was lost. However, they must be registered and activated to work. Plus the device must be powered on. Furthermore, IMEI and GPS call trackers can be used to give you information on where a phone is within minutes, by tracking a call. For third-party apps, all the required steps must be taken prior to the time when your phone was lost or stolen in order to work. IMEI and GPS call trackers can give you the location of your phone within minutes by tracking a call using the phone's GPS system or IMEI number. This system delivers real-time results regarding the location of your phone. However, all the methods should give you information on the locations of the phone if the requirements and directions are followed in regards to the apps or features that you're trying to utilize to locate your device.

You may be out and about or simply sitting at home and find that you can't locate your phone. Did you leave it in a drawer or at the restaurant last night? You may even question whether or not it was stolen when you left your purse sitting on the bleachers at your child's basketball game. It may be hard to pinpoint what happened to your phone and where it was left, or even if it was stolen. However, there are things you can do to find it.

Use Your Phone's GPS System

In order to use your phone's GPS system, log into your AT&T U-Verse account and follow the directions to call your phone. You can even use this service to locate your device. However, keep in mind that the GPS system must be enabled on your device and your phone must be turned on for this feature to work.

Use A Third Party Locator App/IMEI and GPS Call Trackers

You can also use a third-party app to locate your phone. However, this app must be activated before your phone is lost or stolen. Make sure you register the apps or follow any of the directions necessary to ensure that the app is in full working condition. You can also get real-time results by using IMEI & GPS call trackers. These call trackers can be used to track the location of a phone call. These apps can be used even when the phone is not connected to the internet and can reveal the GPS coordinates of a phone number in mere seconds.

Important Information to consider

If you feel your phone was stolen and opt to suspend your account right away, the apps and features won't work on your device. As a result, it may be a good idea to eliminate the possibility that it was simply misplaced or lost before suspending your phone. Search your home and retrace your steps before suspending your AT&T U-Verse phone.
