Can you ping my ipad's last location

Ipad is lost and the offline option was not turned on. Can you still ping last location of device before battery died.

If the Find My iPad feature was enabled prior to it being “misplaced”, then if active, you would stand a good chance of locating it.


However, if the feature was not activated prior to being misplaced - or the iPad has been inactive for more than 24 hours, the last known location will not be available.


The best chance that you that you have (if Find My was previously activated), of locating your iPad, is to set the iPad to its “lost” condition. If subsequently powered-on and within range of a known WiFi network, the location will be updated.


Here is Apple’s advice for lost or stolen devices:
