There is nothing you can do with remote technology. The one and only method Apple provides to remote track a device is Find My. If Find My was not enabled, there is no mechanism to track it remotely.


Report the theft to the police and file an insurance claim if you have any insurance that covers the theft.

If they were not on you can do only this.

Also file a police report its worth it it Might show up.

I hope it was insured and you're able to get a new phone right away.
