Lost iPhone and data is turned off for Find My iPhone

I lost my iPhone yesterday afternoon. I have looked in every place I have been since I last had it to when I realized I didn't have it. I tried to use the Find My iPhone app from another device but it told me I was offline. I think that I had turned off data for that app on my phone. Is there any way I can find it given that I can't seem to be able to find it with Find My iPhone?

iPhone 6, iOS 11.2.5

Sorry only the old fashion way, look for it, see number 2.

Find My iPhone to locate works only if all below are true.:

1. Find My iPhone is ON before the lost

2. iPhone has Internet connection using Cellular data or Wi-Fi

3. iPhone is not switched Off

4. iPhone battery is not dead.
