How to fix Apple Find my iPhone not working
Apple Find my iPhone is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Your browser tries to reach apple.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Reload and restart
Reload the page (Ctrl+F5, or Cmd+Shift+R on a Mac), or fully close the app and open it again.
Try another connection
Switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data. If it works on one and not the other, the problem is your network, not Apple Find my iPhone.
Update the app
Install the latest version from the App Store or Google Play. Old versions can stop connecting after a server-side change.
While Apple Find my iPhone is down: what to use instead
- Web browser Open Find My in a web browser on a computer and sign in with the same Apple Account; it can show your device list when the iPhone app will not load.
- Another Apple device Use the Find My app on an iPad or Mac signed in with the same Apple Account to see the device on a map and play a sound.
- Carrier support Call your mobile carrier to suspend the line and block the SIM if the phone is lost, which stops calls and texts on that number while you wait.
- Official status page Check the official status page to see if Find My is listed as an outage before you keep retrying; if it is, wait for Apple to clear it.

How we track Apple Find my iPhone
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Apple Find my iPhone, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Apple Find my iPhone, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. This is separate from Apple Find my iPhone's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
