How do I lock a phone remotely without a account?

Hello,


I had a iPhone 13 which I had gave to my daughter but I had erased my account from the phone including Find My. She had lost the phone and now we can’t find it. What should we do and how can I lock the phone so no one gets into it?

iPhone 14 Pro, iOS 16

Without Find My enabled you are out of luck. That device cannot be located or locked and Apple does not get involved in locating lost or stolen products.


When your daughter set the iPhone up for her own use did she enable Find My?
