Hello, The app "find My Phone" does need to be downloaded onto the phone. I am not sure of all of the procedures, but it was very simple to set up. Also, there is another app call "find My Friends." It was recommended to install this app and to have all phones in the family, plus friends invited. This way you can immediately start tracking a stolen phone. In my son's case. he stated that there wasn't much battery left on it, so I had a small window to work with. I really need to check to see if all of my info is current and update it if need be. HTH.
