Find Your Lost iPad with Bluetooth
Can't find your iPad and it's not connected to WiFi? FindMy uses Bluetooth signal detection to locate your iPad even when it is offline. Works with iPad, iPad Air, iPad Pro, and iPad mini -- no internet connection needed on the lost device.

1. Open & Scan
Launch FindMy on your iPhone and it automatically scans for nearby Bluetooth devices, including your iPad, iPad Air, iPad Pro, and iPad mini.
2. Follow the Signal
Use the precision radar to walk toward your iPad. The signal strength indicator grows as you get closer, guiding you room by room even without WiFi.
3. Pinpoint & Recover
When the signal peaks, your iPad is within reach. Check between couch cushions, under blankets, or wherever the Bluetooth trail leads you.
Why FindMy Is the Best iPad Finder
Works Without WiFi or Internet
Unlike iCloud-based tracking, FindMy uses direct Bluetooth detection. Your iPad does not need an internet connection -- it just needs to have battery and Bluetooth enabled.
All iPad Models Supported
iPad 10th gen, iPad Air M2, iPad Pro M4, and iPad mini 6 are all detected automatically. FindMy works with any iPad that has Bluetooth capabilities.
Precision Radar View
A real-time signal strength meter shows exactly how close you are to your iPad. iPads have strong Bluetooth radios, making them easier to detect from further away.
Disconnect Alerts
Get notified the moment your iPad goes out of Bluetooth range so you never leave it behind at a cafe, school, or someone else's house again.
Stop Searching, Start Finding
Download FindMy for free and locate your lost iPad in seconds -- even offline.
Download on the App StoreiPad Tracking Notes
iPads emit Bluetooth continuously when awake and for several hours in modern-standby after the screen turns off. FindMy can therefore pick up a recently-sleeping iPad on the same floor, but for an iPad that has been off overnight you will want Apple's Find My network, which uses other nearby iPhones as relays.
Will FindMy detect an iPad with the screen off?
Yes, for several hours after the screen sleeps. Apple keeps the Bluetooth radio alive in standby for exactly this kind of scenario.
When should I use Apple's Find My instead of this app?
If you have lost the iPad more than a few rooms away — at a different building, park, hotel, or public transit stop — switch to Apple's own Find My, which uses crowd-sourced location relays rather than direct Bluetooth.
Does a cellular iPad show a stronger signal than Wi-Fi only?
No — the Bluetooth radio is identical between models. The cellular antenna is a separate piece of hardware and does not help Bluetooth scanning.
