Can the "find iPhone" function be used offline? | @ DIME Artedim

　Easy-to-carry iPhone is often lost out of town, or can't be found at home. The convenient function at that time is to "find iPhone". Can this function be used offline?

How to set find iPhone

　There is a way to find the missing iPhone. This is the function of using the application.

　It is very easy for IOS 13 or later iPhone to use the find application. Start the find application, and then select find person, find device, and yourself to find it easily by touching a pre-bound person or iPhone (iPad,Apple watch).

　However, iPhone, which does not know where to go, cannot be found in the so-called "offline" state!

What is the reason why "find" iPhone is offline?

　Even if you use the "find" function, the iPhone you are looking for when it appears offline.

The location information service was turned off without connecting power through the cell phone network or Wi-Fi. In fact, the Apple ID entered was wrong.

It can be thought of as the above state.

　If iPhone is not connected to the network, the latest location cannot be found. In this case, try the following steps first.

[reference] when Apple/ "find iPhone" is offline or does not work

　The point is whether the iPhone you want to find is already logged in to iCloud.

　For an iPhone that uses iOS 13, if you have clicked in the order of "setting"user name", "find"find"and" find iPhone ", then the Apple ID that the iPhone uses in the login is key.

　Log in to iCloud.com or "find" Apple ID and Apple ID are accidentally different. There's a situation like that. If you know different ID and password, try to enter its contents with one hand.

　If it still fails, the key is whether iPhone is currently connected to mobile data communications or Wi-Fi networks. There is a limit to what the finder's iPhone can do, but what may change if you turn on cabin mode and try to turn it off, or try to turn the power on / off.

　The party being found tried to be more effective, but he couldn't do it because he couldn't find it.... no, no, no.

　If you can't find it anyway, protecting the information entered by others in Phone is the most important thing.

　Access the find application or iCloud.com, click find iPhone, and then set the missing iPhone to lost.

　In this case, when someone turns on the power to the missing iPhone and reconnects to the mobile communication line or the Wi-Fi network, you can lock the iPhone password and display a custom message with your phone number on the lock screen.

　In addition, you can track the location of the device. In this mode, you will not be able to use the information of credit, debit and prepaid cards registered on Apple Pay, so you can rest assured.

　Next, I will inform the police that iPhone is missing or stolen. Sometimes you are asked about the serial number, so take down the record first.

　If you can't find iPhone at last, you can clean up the data on iPhone from the screen just now. I can protect your personal information, but I gave up the iPhone I couldn't find.

　Depending on the mobile phone operator, you may separately instruct your iPhone to find a service and what to do if it is lost, so it's better to confirm it in Web and the sales store.

　In this case, review subscriptions to operator services and back up data at any time in iCloud and itunes to prevent iPhone from being lost or stolen!

The data will be surveyed by the editorial department in late January 2020. Although we hope that the information is foolproof, we cannot guarantee the completeness and correctness of its content. "always hold yourself responsible for the use of products and services.
