Mobile phones are the device par excellence to keep us connected with the rest of the world, whether through social networks such as WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook or Twitter (now X) and other apps such as calls. But not only that, but the phones themselves are full of functions that keep us connected and allow us to keep a record of what we do and where we are.
On the one hand, this can be dangerous for our privacy and security, since someone could be controlling or stalking us, but at the same time it has positive things, for example, If we lose or steal our cell phone, we can track it to its location to recover it.
This is precisely what this young man did, whose smartphone was stolen and through the Find your devicewhich is available for both Android and iPhone phones, you can see the real-time location of your phone as long as it is turned on and has coverage.

Although this is not recommended and can be dangerous, Alex decided to go get his smartphone in personso he got on a plane and traveled to Fez to recover it. Although his cell phone had a signal, and while he was walking around the city I saw that he was approaching the location in which the device was supposedly located, unfortunately He couldn’t find his phone, That did see hundreds of second-hand models and even some completely new ones.
Despite not having found what I was looking for at first, Alex assured that he did not regret having taken this trip at all.since although I had not found the phone, He discovered a city that he loved, full of “incredible people” and a culture that caught his attention, so he assured that he would undoubtedly return to the country. Of course, Alex went with a local guide and as he remembers in the video, it seemed essential to hire one if you want to visit that market.
