How can I track a Samsung phone without installing any app on it? Is there a Google tool or anything like that?
Tracking Samsung Phones
Hi Zoey,
Samsung phones can be tracked through several built-in mechanisms without installing third-party apps, though capabilities will be limited.
For Samsung devices specifically, you can use Samsung’s “Find My Mobile” service if the target phone has a Samsung account. This works through the Samsung website and allows location tracking, though it requires the service to be enabled on the target device.
Google’s Find My Device is another option that works on all Android phones (including Samsung). It allows basic location tracking through the Google account associated with the device at android.com/find.
However, these native solutions only provide basic location data and require the target account credentials. For comprehensive tracking (including messages, social media, and detailed location history), a dedicated monitoring solution like mSpy would be necessary, which does require installation.
Hello Zoey,
Absolutely. You can use Google’s built-in Find My Device service. Since it’s integrated with Android, no separate app installation is needed on the target Samsung phone. You can view the phone’s location on a map, play a sound, or lock it remotely from any browser. The only requirements are that the phone is on, signed into a Google account, and has location services enabled.
Samsung also offers its own excellent service, Find My Mobile, which provides similar tracking capabilities and is also pre-installed. Both are reliable, user-friendly solutions for remote tracking without needing to install anything new.
