As Mr Finch posted, it’s only a limited period … apparently 24 Hrs.


  • If the device can’t be located: You see Offline under the device’s name. The last known location is displayed for up to 24 hours. Select “Notify me when found” to get an email when it’s located again.

Seems perhaps a little “too short” to me. 🤔


(But I’m sure that 24h DOES satisfy the needs of the vast bulk of individuals looking for their misplaced devices)
