For me, it would be necessary to certain smartphones to have an installed antivirus. Smartphones can access the internet and we know that internet is full of viruses and malware which can affect the system and its files.

I’m amazed at how people loose their phones.
Regardless, EVERY new device comes with a way to locate it if lost or stolen, making it super easy to find.
Try to install seekdroid or lookout onto your phone from the google play store and then set up an account on your home PC and try to track your phone. If that doesn’t work then yes report the phone stolen to your carrier and file an insurance claim.
