Finding and protecting a lost device
BlackBerry Protect includes features designed to help you find your BlackBerry device and help protect
your device's data if your device is ever lost or stolen. You can manage up to seven devices from your
BlackBerry Protect account.
After you turn on BlackBerry Protect in your device settings, visit
http://protect.blackberry.com
and
sign in with your BlackBerry ID. On the BlackBerry Protect website, you can view the current location of
your device on a map, make it ring (even if it's in silent mode), or display a custom message on your
locked device to provide instructions about how to contact you. If your device is stolen, you can
remotely lock it, change the password, or delete all of the data from your device.
If you add a work email account to your device, your administrator might disable BlackBerry Protect, or
the ability to remotely change your password or locate your device.
