My wife, Lynn, texted me from the social dance she helps run every week here in Seattle. A mutual friend’s bag had gone missing containing her wallets, keys, and phone. It seemed to be stolen, but the facts were odd: the place where it’s held doesn’t have random passers-through, and it hadn’t happened before. Everyone leaves their possessions in the same place. Even stranger, a backpack had been left with no identifying information that no one recognized.</p><p>
I texted back some suggestions, and then Lynn called me to update me. I had an idea: was it an iPhone? It was. And our friend remembered her iCloud password. Using Lynn’s phone, she punched her account information into Find My iPhone (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/find-my-iphone/id376101648?mt=8), and the phone was quickly located in Tacoma, which is about 40 minutes’ drive from Seattle.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2988281/security/find-my-iphone-comes-to-the-rescue.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
