Search giant Google has rolled out an interesting tool, which will help users in finding their lost smartphone(s). To use the feature, users just need to type 'I lost my phone' on Google . The search query will bring up a special page which includes the record of all the devices that they have. Users then just need to click on the device they think have been lost.
Along with this, users can also choose to perform actions such as showing the location of the device on the map, or even locking the device's screen remotely from the page itself.
The feature is only limited to Android devices. In case you misplace your iPhone, it will tell you to use 'Find my iPhone ,' which is a similar service offered by Apple for ios devices.
Even then, Google has iPhone users covered. It will help users lock their Google accounts to protect their privacy.
Apart from this, the page also allows easy access to a user's account hub, which shows data and personal preferences of the user. Users just need to say 'Ok Google , Show me my account,' and they will be taken to the hub to find the information.
