Stolen phone

[AC Question]

Hi, my Samsung note3 was stolen this past weekend-is there any way to track this phone without having installed an app for this purpose. Thanks

Welcome to Android Central! Sorry to hear about the mishap. If you registered the device with Android Device Manager, you could track it, as long as the phone is on, and has GPS, wi-fi, or mobile data on. If the thief powered down the tablet or did a factory reset, you won't be able to track it.
