sorry to hear about your lost phone. If the "Find My" feature wasn't activated, locating your device becomes more challenging.

What phone are you using?

Hi @Aurora_Liao28,

If you have not activated the location of your phone, you will not be able to locate it...

Hi @Aurora_Liao28

Sorry this happened to you. As others stated, there is nothing, other than calling the phone and hoping for the best, that can be done.

A snippet from the link below:

“Apple will never contact you to say that your iPhone or iPad has been found. ”

Hi, don't forget to report it lost and lock the SIM card in case a malicious person uses it.

I ran into this issue too. Whoever took the phone turned it off immediately.

Most likely they'll reset it and try to resell it. Nothing much you can do but report it stolen so that every carrier can blacklist that IMEI so it can't be used for accessing cell towers.

Unless the phone is sent to another continent. It can then certainly be used.

You can't track the phone based on IMEI. As jvh_NVPF2 said, you can report it lost, and the IMEI will be blocked on all mobile providers in N.A.
