I read that Find My will ping the last location of your device before the phone loses battery power. Is that true and if so, how do I find that information?

  • On a supported iPhone, turning on the Find My network allows you to locate your iPhone for up to 24 hours after it’s turned off, or up to 5 hours when it’s in power reserve mode.
  • Send Last Location: If your device’s battery charge level becomes critically low, its location is sent to Apple automatically.
