if another phone isn’t handy, you can use your Apple Watch. Swipe up from the
bottom of your watch face to access Control Center. Look for the icon that
resembles a phone with audio waves emanating from it. Tap that icon, and as
the icon turns blue, your phone will emit a pinging noise that you can follow to
track it down.


BROWSE PHOTOS
You can view certain photos from your iPhone on the watch. By default, your
watch displays the photos you’ve tagged as favorites, but you can change the
album. To do this, open the Watch app on your iPhone and go to the My Watch
section. Tap the entry for Photos and change the Synced Album to one of your
choosing.
