I am unable to find my airpods

pretty much only by looking the old fashion way

airpods do not have gps so they don't know their own location

airpods only means of communication is bluetooth so about a 50meters range

the way find

my works in terms of airpods is that the iphone use it's own position  last time it had contact with the airpods

You can

see AirPods Max in Find My for up to 18 hours inside their Smart Case. Outside

of their Smart Case, you can see them for 72 hours.
