Can I hide find my phone

ccan hide the icon or notification that find my phone is operating in the phone.

There is no Icon or Notification associated with the "Find My iPhone" feature. Find My iPhone is turned on in Settings > iCloud
The Find My iPhone App is only used to locate your iDevices. It has nothing to do with turning on the Find My iPhone feature.

  • What are the options if one iPad was stolen last week and Apple created a bug which the burglar can turn off "Find My Phone"?

    Last week, my gf was stolen and lost her iPad. I thought that everything was lost because "Find My Phone" didn't manage to track the iPad location so the police could do something.
    Today, I ended up reading this article (http://9to5mac.com/2014/04/03/ios-7-bug-allows-anyone-to-disable-find-my-iphone- and-bypass-activation-lock-without-a-password/) which tells me that the iOS 7.1 presents a bug where someone can deactivate the "Find My Phone" function without the password.
    What are the options here so I can rehave the stolen iPad, which Apple helped the burglar to keep it or even sell it?
    Appreciate your cooperation

    Apple didn't "help the burgler" do anything. Did she have a passcode on the device? If so, the thief would not have been able to access any of the functions needed to disable Find My Phone. Also, if the device doesn't show up in iCloud's Find My Phone, it may be that it is simply turned off, or not connected to a network.

  • I have Apple ID for using iTunes, but haven't signed in. Now my Ipad stolen, how can I use Find My Phone for finding my Ipad?

    Who can help me, to add my Ipad to Deviecs in Find My Phone. I was usually using my Ipad sign in iTunes for download music, but haven't signed in iCloud yet. Now my I Ipad stolen, how can I use Find My Phone?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can only locate your device when it is logged into iCloud and 'Find My Phone' is enabled, additionally the device will need to be switched on and connected to a wifi or cellular network.
    Unfortunately, you cannot activate iCloud or 'Find My Phone' remotely.
    If the device is wiped by you or another, you may not be able to locate the device (although some have reported they can)

  • How can I use find a phone with my family members but they each have there own email

    How can I use find a phone with my family's iphone when they already have email addresses?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can't use find my phone from your phone if your other family members use another iCloud account.
    You have two options depending on why you want to find the phones.
    Use find my phone at iCloud.com on a mac/PC and log in using their account.
    Use the find my friends app

    Can I use my find my phone on my iphone or iPad to find other family members I phones if they have their own apple id's etc?

    If they have Settings > iCloud > Find My iPhone enabled on their phones and you know the id that it's linked to and the account's password then you can use the Find My iPhone app on another device to try and locate them.

  • How can I use Find my Phone in my Pc with Windows 7?

    I am a new Iphone user, and I am rather lost in some issues. For example, How can I install and use Find My Phone in a Windows 7 environment.
    Thanks and regards

    Download  the iCloud control panel for Windows, http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1455 and follow setup info from http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12803 so that all you need to do is open the iCloud control panel, login to your iCloud account, and click Find My Phone to see the information on the device.

  • HT201365 Can I activate find my phone remotely if one if my iPhone is in Europe

    Can I activate find my iPhone remotely if one of my phones is in Europe

    What do you mean activate?
    Find my iphone has to be turned on manually on the device itself before it is lost.
    If it was activated prior to it's trip to Europe, you can track it.

  • Can't get find my phone to stay 'on'

    it comes on and i get the screen for 'allow' but when i hit it, nothing happens.

    yes, for a year and that works fine and i'm going to contacts, etc under that account. i get contacts, etc and find my phone to go to 'on' but then they all go off again, even though i hit 'allow'

  • Why can't I find my phone numbers in my contacts only email?

    I have merged my Iphone 4S with icloud and now only have emails in my phone and no more phone numbers. How do I get the phone to be a phone and not an email contacts? Man pulling hair. I cann't believe Apple is so unlogical. I have a mac and it is a wonder. But the phone?????? waiting to feel the logic. any help would be welcome.

    I'm not familiar with non-iOS smart phones, but I'm pretty sure that you'll have to enter your contacts manually.  ONce you've done this, back up your iPhone to your computer via iTunes, and to your iCloud account, then do so on a regualr basis.  That way, if you need to change your iPhone in the future - an upgrade for example - you can set up your new phone from your previous, most recent iPhone back-up.
    Once you've set up your phone, download the Facebook app, log in with your usual credentials, and it should sync with your contacts on your iPhone.
    If you mean your WhatsApp app, if your credentials remains the same, I'd have thought they'd appear on your new phone.

    When I connect my iPhone to my PC iTunes no longer automatically opens. And when I open it myself, my phone does not even appear under devices. Help please!!

    Things to try:
    Try resetting your phone (press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds until the Apple logo appears.  When you see the Apple logo let go of both buttons and your iPhone will reboot.
    Try a new sync cable (often the problem)
    Make sure you phone is adequately charged
    Make sure you are using latest version of iTunes
