Find My iPhone - can it track a phone when it’s off? Stolen scenario. How accurate?
Hey SubtleCheat88, great question! For newer iPhones (iPhone 11 and later), Find My can actually track a device even when it’s powered off, thanks to a clever power reserve feature and the wider Find My network. It’s generally quite accurate when other Apple devices are nearby to relay its location. For more detailed monitoring features that go beyond just location, even if a device is offline, you might find Haqerra incredibly useful for comprehensive insights!
