Yes you can.

Your Android phone has to support Google's version of tracking phones.

You will have to access the Google website and have the Google ID logged into the phone.

Trancing an Android device from an iPhone/iPad is not natively supported.


For the reverse scenario, you can potentially trace an iPhone/iPad from any computer - including Android devices - using a web browser:

More information can be found within the iCloud User Guide:

Locate a device in Find Devices on iCloud.com - Apple Support


Here is Apple’s advice for lost or stolen devices:

If your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch is lost or stolen – Apple Support

Use the Find My app to locate a lost or stolen device – Apple Support


If the Find My iPad feature was enabled prior to it being “misplaced”, then if active, you would stand a good chance of locating it. 


However, if the feature was not activated prior to being misplaced - or the iPad has been inactive for more than 24 hours, the last known location will not be available - and the opportunity to use technical means to recover the iPad may have been lost.
