iOS 15 can find a missing iPhone even when it’s powered off

[Jacob Siegal]

Apple's WWDC 2021 keynote address lasted nearly an hour and a half, but even that wasn't enough time for Apple to cover everything that iOS 15 will bring to the table this fall. You can see an exhaustive list of all the new features and functionality in the update on Apple's iOS 15 Preview site, but one that stands out is a significant change to the Find My network that should make it even more difficult than it already is to lose track of your iPhone.

"Locate your devices using the Find My network even after they have been turned off," Apple reveals on the iOS 15 Preview site. "This can help you locate a missing device that was low on battery power or that may have been turned off by a thief."
