Having your cell phone stolen is one of the greatest fears of our increasingly interconnected society. But iPhone users have an extra chance to get their device back by following a very simple trick announced by a user who went viral on TikTok.
Katrina Audrey calls the maneuver a “hack,” but it’s actually a silent setup that anyone using Apple devices can take advantage of. Her post on TikTok has already been viewed more than 10 million times, and she says she used it to get her iPhone back after it was stolen.

How to find your iPhone even if it is turned off
Said setup starts on your iPhone. You need to configure Face ID and a password, and then turn off the Control Center and USB Accessories options. By contrast, the Location Services and Find My Phone options should be turned on, along with Find My Network and Send Last Location. You should always set up your phone this way to use this number.
To find the device later, in case of loss or theft, you will need the cooperation of a relative or friend with an iOS device. You will need to sign in with your account on the device and that’s it.
You can see your other missing device in your account settings. Allows you to locate the vehicle even if it is off or in airplane mode.
We warn readers never to call their cell phone alone in dangerous places, especially if they believe their device has been stolen. Instead, call the police and tell them where the device is.
