How do I track my lost iPhone 14 Pro?

So, I lost my iPhone 14 in Berlin on the 8th of December. At the time, I shared my location with my friend and it said no location found. I called the phone and it was turned off. I then forgot my iCloud password. I managed to get back in via account recovery a week later. Upon gaining access I checked find a phone and it said my phone was last seen two hours exactly where I lost it.

Could it glitch that much where it says last active even if it hasn’t been for a whole week? And is there anyway to see how long it was active for previously?

It is very possible that your iPhone went back online, which could be the case. That would have happened if your iPhone reconnected to a cellular network or Wi-Fi, which would update its location.

There is no way to see how long your iPhone was active previously.

So potentially, the phone was switched off and handed in. The club switched it on and now it’s run out of charge maybe?

I'm thinking, if someone stole it, surely it wouldn’t show that as a location 2 hours ago? Another odd thing, when I go into the help someone else find a phone and log on, it says no location found. So it’s really mixed signals.

That’s also possible, if your iPhone ran out of battery it would display its last known location. Regarding the mixed signals, that is strange.
