There can be instances like when you were on a run and then you came home to find that you dropped it somewhere along that run. This usually happens when the band of the watch goes loose or sometimes you give your Apple Watch to your little kid, who after a few minutes of playing it keeps it stuffed in their toys.

So what can one do in these stations? Well, you don’t have to worry because Apple has thought of this on your behalf. You can locate your Apple Watch by the app “Find My” which also works with the Apple Watch as well as your iPhone. In fact, his ‘Find My’ app works far well with the Apple Watch as you can find with your iPhone.
