Hello yc0290,


What stedman1 said is for sure true but you might be able to get lucky.


When turning off location services on my iPhone I saw the following warning.


I am not sure about it saying “Find My iPhone” vs “Find My” but maybe it will show here without a location to let you mark it as lost. https://www.icloud.com/find


If not, this has additional steps for you to secure the device and sleep possible replacement.

I hope this is helpful,
