Finding the last location of dead AirPods can be a frustrating experience. However, with the help of the Find My app, there is still hope to locate them. Let me guide you through the process.
1. Open the Find My app: Start by opening the Find My app on your iPhone or iPad. This app allows you to track the location of your Apple devices, including your AirPods.
2. Tap on the “Devices” tab: Once you have the Find My app open, you’ll see a tab labeled “Devices” at the bottom of the screen. Tap on it to see a list of all your Apple devices that are linked to your iCloud account.
3. Locate your AirPods: In the list of devices, look for your AirPods. They will be listed as “AirPods” followed by their name, such as “John’s AirPods.” Tap on them to view more details.
4. Check the last known location: On the AirPods detail page, you will see a map displaying the last known location of your AirPods. This location is updated when your AirPods were last connected to your iPhone or any other device with your iCloud account.
5. Zoom in on the map: Zoom in on the map to get a clearer view of the area where your AirPods were last located. You can also switch to satellite view for a more detailed perspective.
6. Visit the last known location: Armed with the last known location, you can physically visit the area to search for your AirPods. It’s possible that they are still there if no one has found them yet. Look for any recognizable landmarks or places where you may have used your AirPods before.
7. Use the Play Sound feature: If you are near the last known location but can’t spot your AirPods visually, you can use the Play Sound feature in the Find My app. This will play a sound on your AirPods, helping you locate them even if they are hidden under something.
8. Seek help from others: If you still can’t find your AirPods after visiting the last known location and using the Play Sound feature, consider seeking help from others. Inform the people around you about your lost AirPods and ask if they have seen or found them.
Remember, the accuracy of the last known location depends on when your AirPods were last connected to a device with your iCloud account. If someone removed your AirPods from the location before you could find them, it may be challenging to recover them. However, by following these steps, you increase your chances of locating your lost dead AirPods. Good luck in your search!
