    HI Jerry Dattilo,

     

    I understand that you have a device you would like to put into Lost Mode in Find My iPhone and be notified by email when the device is located. Here is an article about this behavior:

    1. If you used Lost Mode, when tracking begins, you see your device’s current location, as well as any changes in its location on the map.

        If your device is online  when you put it in Lost Mode or lock it, it locks and tracking begins (if applicable). If Location Services is turned off on the device, it’s temporarily turned on to track your device’s location. A confirmation email is sent to your Apple ID email address.

        If your device is offline , the passcode lock and tracking (if applicable) take effect the next time it’s online.
