Stolen Apple Watch

Hi all,

I suspect my Apple Watch has been stolen by my flat mate. Using ‘find my’ on my iPhone shows my watch offline with the last location being in my house. The location has been updating every 2 days, moving to different parts off the house, while still remaining offline.

my question is why is the location updating when the watches battery should be dead? Could the reason be he’s turned it on then off a few times?

the watch is an iPhone 5 with wifi and GPS paired with my iPhone.

Apple Watch Series 5, watchOS 8

By turning on lost mode, if the watch is turned on you will received a notification of the location.

Locations of devices are approximate and estimates can vary. Indoor locations are almost never perfectly precise due to being inside skewing GPS data.

I would make sure to check every nook and cranny before making assumptions, as I have often misplaced my watch only to find it later. Check in between couch cushions, in your car, and between the wall and bed. These are places I often lose mine.
