Lost iphone

hey! hope you're doing fine. I've been using iPhone for many years but today my phone got snatched. I had iPhone 13 pro, and as soon as I got home and accessed my icloud id, my device appeared to be offline. Why is that? I mean then how can I access the live location of my device when it doesn't even appear on the map? I have not disabled the live location setting (Especially for finding my device). Please help me with that. I know i can depend on Apple.

iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 17

my device appeared to be offline. Why is that?


One or a combination of the reasons shown below exist.


  • The battery has run down
  • The phone does not have a connection to the Internet where it is currently located
  • Thieves are very fond of placing stolen phones in a special type of bag that will not allow the phone to receive or send a signal


Unfortunately, there is not really much that you can do, other than check a few times each day to see if the status of the phone might have changed.
