Locate Lost Nokia Phone Through Bluetooth

Whether you are using a Nokia Lumia smartphone or another basic mobile phone, it is possible to manually find your lost or misplaced cell phone using Bluetooth technology. The process doesn’t require you to pre-install any cell tracking application; instead, you have to make sure that the device has the Bluetooth feature turned ON.

This kind of “manual” tracking is useful in a closed area, like a school or college classroom. So, let’s say, you have misplaced your Nokia phone and now you are not able to find its location. Assuming the phone’s Bluetooth is turned ON, you can grab your friend’s phone and track the device.

If the distance between the two phones is over 10 meters, then your phone’s name will not be shown in the “list.” In that case you have to move around a bit until you see your phone’s name on the screen.

Various Bluetooth technology will help you to track distances that are even kilometers away, but such techniques are unavailable on basic and smartphones. Needless to say, this simple tip is immensely useful to know if you have the phone around you. Again, take an example that you are crossing the street and you realize you don’t have your phone with you. Did you left it back when you were at the restaurant? Or did you lose your phone when you were walking. A quick check via the Bluetooth feature should help you know the location of the device.

It’s reassuring to know that the phone is around you, and not stolen.

Then again, you should have Bluetooth turned ON before you lose the phone. If you don’t, then you have to commit yourself to using third-party cell trackers and other softwares to find the missing phone.
