Find My Device may soon let you find your Pixel phone even when it’s off

• Find My Device helps you locate your lost Android device or accessory.
• At the moment, it requires the device to be online and powered on to report its location.
• This caveat could go away soon, though, as code in Android 14 hints you’ll be able to locate a Pixel phone even when it’s powered off.

Android’s Find My Device service helps you locate your lost smartphone, tablet, smartwatch, or earbuds. All you need to do is open the app or website and choose the device you want to pinpoint on a map. So long as the device is online and has network connectivity, Find My Device can ping it for its current location. You can then remotely send a command to have it play a sound, lock it with a message on the lock screen, or wipe it.
