The settings for Google's Find My Device network, which has been delayed, have leaked showing how the network will be used to find missing devices.
, the device cannot be located when powered off since it won't be connected to the Find My Device network. You will still be able to remotely wipe the device, however, should it get into the wrong hands. If set on, the device remains unconnected to the Find My Device network but you'll be able to remotely see the last location where the device was powered on.
Until Google launches the network, you're limited so the best thing you can do is to keep an eye on your phone and know where it is at all times. And do keep in mind that once the Find My Device network is working and you have a fighting chance to recover your lost, missing, or stolen Android device that has been powered off, that doesn't mean that all of a sudden you should be careless with your mobile device.
