Here's what Apple suggests in this case (you may wish to go to the dpcument and read it there since hwne I copy and paste thigns here the formatting is usually jumbled).


If Find My is offline or not working - Apple Support



I see my device in Find My, but it's offline



Learn why you might see "Offline," "No location available," or "Location Services Off," and what to do.






Why is it offline?



  • Your device is powered off or its battery has run out.
  • It's not connected to a known Wi-Fi or data network. 
  • If you turned on Send Last Location, more than 24 hours has passed since it connected to a Wi-Fi or data network. 
  • You might be in a region where we don't offer this feature due to technical limitations or local law. 








What can I do?



You can still play a sound, send a message, issue a

lock request, or start an erase of your iOS device with Find My. Your

device receives the command after you turn on your device and connect to

the Internet.
