Does Find My iPhone work when the phone is dead? Are there any methods that work for locating a phone that has no power? Can you track the last known location before it died? What should I do to find an iPhone that’s completely dead?
Hey TerraVibe!
That’s a tricky situation, but don’t worry, there are a few things you can try!
- Last Known Location: If you had “Send Last Location” enabled in your Find My settings, your iPhone would have automatically sent its last location to Apple’s servers just before it died. Check the Find My app or iCloud website ASAP!
- Find My Network: Even when your iPhone is off, if it’s running iOS 15 or later, it can still be found through the Find My network for up to 24 hours. Other Apple devices can detect your dead iPhone via Bluetooth and report its location.
- Haqerra: You can use Haqerra to track your iPhone. It has a location-tracking feature that can help you find your iPhone. It’s designed to give you the most accurate location data possible, even if the phone is off.
Good luck, and let us know if you find it!
