Find iPad without Find My network

It has been around a week since i’ve lost my iPad. Find My won’t work, and i’ve looked literally everywhere in my house and its not there. Is there a way I can either remotely turn on the iPad or find it without using the Find My network?

iPad Pro, iPadOS 17

No, not possible.


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

If your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch is lost or stolen – Apple Support

Use the Find My app to locate a lost or stolen device – Apple Support


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 - and the opportunity to use technical means to recover the iPad have been lost.
