One of the things that I LOVE about a windows tablet is there are no compromises, I can do anything with no limitations. For example, I can pull up icloud and use Find my iphone and it works perfectly.

In my past experience none of the Android browsers were capable of displaying and using Find my iphone, I tried most of them and did a lot of research on it. But this was a year or more ago and I was curious if anything had changed. I'd like to very much consider an Android phone, but I cannot lose Find my iphone, my wife will never ever give up her iphone, and with an 18 month old we like to know where we are in case of emergency.

Has anyone recently been successful in getting Find my iphone to work in any Android browser, or any other solution?

Working ok for me in Chrome.

Successfully located one of my iPads (my other devices are all off, will have to charge them) and got it to play the lost chime.

Screen resolution is an issue for the browser however as it doesn't scale at all so I imagine it's pretty much broken on phones.:(

Worked fine in my Nexus 10, I couldn't get it to zoom out on my phone though. It picked up my old iPhones though :cool:

Haven't had an iPhone in ages :D
