Find iPad - locate your device

An iPad is not only a good helper in everyday life, but also a valuable device. To help you quickly find your iPad if you lose it, we'll show you how to effectively locate your tablet.

Find your lost iPad again

If your tablet was stolen or you just misplaced the iPad, then the search function can be very helpful.

1. Open the settings by clicking on the gear icon.
2. From the options that appear, you need to select the rubric "iCloud".
3. You will find the option "Find my iPad" as the penultimate item of the rubric. Start the function by tapping.
4. Followed by this, you need to activate the location services and allow access permission.
5. Now log in to www.icloud.com and search for "Find my iPad/iPhone".
6. Trace there all the devices that you want to recover via Apple.
7. If you lose your device before you can register the device, then you should select the "Lost" option on the iCloud website.
8. This will allow you to enable the "Find my iPad" feature after the fact. It also gives you the option to play a sound or melody from your "iPad".

What is the disadvantage?

The location functions only work when your iPad is connected to a Wi-Fi network. In addition, the function can be disabled by making the factory settings. Thus, this gadget is not a reliable theft protection, but can still be useful to you in extreme cases.
