How can I determine the location of a lost and turned‑off iPhone abroad, in another country? I lost my iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 26.5.2, 04.08.26, in Georgia. I logged into iCloud on 17.08.26 and activated the Find My iPhone feature, but I can’t see its location at all — not even the last one, not even the movement history. How and where can I view this information? I have the IMEI code;how can I see at least the last location??🙏🏻😭
Find My location services can only be enabled from the protected device itself.
If the Find My iPhone feature was enabled prior to it being “misplaced”, then if active, you would stand a good chance of locating and/or remotely managing it.
However, if the feature was not activated prior to being misplaced - or the iPhone 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 iPhone have been lost.
Ensure that you have informed your Cellular Carrier - as your Cellular service may need to be suspended and/or your IMEI blocked.

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