Isn't the "Find My Phone" suppose to be secret in order to - Microsoft Community

if "find phone" it's suppose secret, why send email phone saying found phone, , link map showing it, in stead alternative email address? mean, phone has have microsoft account/email linked in order use it. means phone receive email notifying whereabouts of phone. means person stole/found phone see email , alerted of trying track it, defeating purpose of "secrecy" of tracking. there way turn off , @ map on website? or maybe email should more discrete in order not alert stole/found phone.

please advice

thanks

think it's designed more people misplace phone rather having stolen wife misplaces phone on regular basis come in handy if it's stolen though , person can hack pin first thing take sim out , factory reset @ least can delete data remotely
