Here i am two years after this below post and still im more than happy with this app. Again thanks google, you guys always go above and beyond. Much appreciated. It does just what it says. This app quickly and effortlessly locates a missing device. I've had phones stolen, lost, you name it. Each time this app brought me right to it. I like the features where you can leave a personal message on the screen lock the phone up or just wipe it all together. Great app. Easy lay out easy navigation.

This does nothing. When I open Find My Device, it only shows me the name of my phone. There are no settings, no options, nothing. It literally says "this device" gives me the numerical details of the device, and literally no options other than being able to edit the name of my device. You cant lock, alarm, locate, etc. I can use it to locate a device no linger owned. That's it. There is no point to this app. Yes, I have all the necessary permissions. I have to use a different app instead.

Seriously Google, you are dropping the ball on this one! Especially now that there is no timeline on maps. That's the only reason to use maps at home. With all the advancement in tech you still cant find where my phone is or last location. I think yall are holding out to make this a paid app like google one. Yall hold my email hostage until i pay the 1.99 ransom. How about fixing photos so i can delete the duplicate pictures it saves when it backs up a phones memory. i cant sort them to delete.
