AirPods lost, dead, and not showing up in Find My

Ok so my AirPods have literally been lost for over three weeks, and I have had absolutely no luck finding them. In find my iPhone, they don't even appear under devices, but when I swipe down on my home screen and type in AirPods, it says "Find 'rylee's airpods'," and when I click on it, it again takes me to find my iPhone with all of my devices, my old phones, iPads, and even my previous stolen iPhone! Ive used find my to find my dead AirPods before, because they were listed as a device. But as I said above, my AirPods are lost, dead, and not showing up in find my. I've already had my phone stolen (in my own school- by the way), and I don't need lost AirPods... Im sure they're around my house... but still, any help is help.

Before you could use the Find My app to locate lost AirPods, you needed to add them to Find My. If you haven’t done it before, it’s too late to do it now that they’re off-line and discharged.


Its up to you to keep the device list current. To remove an old device, tap on it, then tap on Remove This Device on the next window.
