The you can access the messages if you put in your password and the phone will open up as normal and you can then access everything. If you have no messages try asking someone to send a text message to see if it appears on your screen then tap it open. I felt happy as soon as I could locate it and lock it at least knowing that no one cold use it and I had a chance of getting it back if it fell in the right hands! I would have even driven up there again just to get it or have someone post it as registered mail and reimburse them or I think you get get reverse charge post so you pay when pick it up from a post office. Thank you MMBL bus lines and shuttle service! I now have back my phone all intact. I organised for the bus line to give it to her and to ask her for ID so no one else could claim it. Lucky for me a friend was catching a bus down the mountain the next day. The bus driver called the number which appeared on my phone screen to call.

I locked it and left my email address and husband's phone number to call. OMG! I could see on the location map it had gone back up the mountain to Buller late at night. I think it fell out of my pocket when I changed seats in the dark! googled Find my Device on my home PC once I got home (when I realised i did not have it after driving from Mansfield to Melb)). I left my Samsung phone on a bus from Mt Buller to Mansfield at night. This worked for me! How good is Find My Device. If you have no password not sure what wold happen. The suggestion above about turning the phone off and on again could work if it then prompts you for your password.

It was just chance I tried this after having no success in the Find My Device app. I entered the password and my phone opened up as per normal.

All I did was tap it and it then prompted me for my phone access password. I saw text message notifications on my screen.
