Recently, someone sent me a message in which they asked, “I want to track a mobile number’s location. The missing phone has no GPS. How do I track the number?”

I can imagine a number of scenarios in which one may need to track a mobile phone number. For example, if your child has a feature phone and has been unreachable or is missing. A missing smartphone with the GPS/location service turned off is another case in point.

In the above cases, tracking the mobile number is the only option you have. You have probably heard of GPS tracking, which is popular. So, like this person who contacted me, you may also be wondering if it is possible to track a mobile number without the aid of GPS. Is it possible to track mobile number location without the use of GPS? Come along as I shed light on the subject.

  • To track mobile number location without GPS

Is it possible to track a mobile number’s location?

Using GPS : If the phone number being tracked has GPS or location service turned on, yes; tracking such a number is easy. There are various software available that do this. Google provides Android Device Manager . Apple has iCloud’s Find My iPhone . There are various 3rd party solutions available as well.

So if a person is missing or a phone stolen, assuming that the SIM card is still in the phone and GPs is active, its location can be tracked using a number of services.

Without GPS : There are a number of websites and services claiming to be able to track a mobile number without the use of GPS. It is mostly clickbait, as all they do is provide you with the network name and allied details attached to that number.

One, that is useless for finding a lost person. Two, “New York” is too generic to be used to find a stolen or missing phone. There are millions of people in New York and countless neighbourhoods, corners, and spots So, those tracking websites are useless.

To track mobile number location without GPS

To track the location of a mobile number without the GPS active is possible from the end of the cell phone carrier or mobile network operator. The operator uses the nearest base stations around the number to track down its location.

How accurate is this method? It depends. In cities where there is a high density of cell towers, it is much more accurate than in the countryside where single cell towers service a wider range. A location precision of up to within 50 metres is possible in urban centres.

Law enforcement agencies often have this kind of access. But it isn’t accessible to 3rd party services. As such, should you ever need to track a missing person who has GPS disabled, your only recourse is the police or other government security agency. Depending on the country you are based in, a warrant may be required before this can be done. The first step is to file a missing person report.
