Today I lost my phone on my to the office in the morning. When I reached my office, I could not find it in my pocket or in the car. I called home, but it was also not there. Then I recalled that I stopped at two places — at an ATM of a bank and at a petrol pump to fill the fuel in the car. When I called on cell number, it was closed down.
My son, who is a software engineer suggested blocking the phone via Google. I did not know how to do it. I went to Google’s website and at the timeline, I found the map route of my phone, which showed it from my home to the petrol pump (here is a screenshot).
I went back to the petrol pump and the guard at the station informed me that he had found the phone when I left the filling station in car. He said he had deposited it in the office and I can take it. I recalled that I had stepped down from the car while checking the filling meter.
I heaved a sigh and collected it from the office with a lot of thanks to the management. My friend Imtiaz Chandio also met with me, said with a pride that it proves the honesty of Chandios (the owner of the petrol station is a Chandio).
After paying gratitude to the Almighty, I also thanked Google for telling me the exact position of the cell phone.
When I inquired I found that my cell phone was at aeroplane mode, that is why the call was not going through on the opened phone. In any case thanks to the Android technology I got back my phone very easily.
Thanks to Google!
