When you look at the Find app screenAirPods ”, then you see a map with the latest location of the AirPods headphones. That is the place where they were last connected to the iPhone. This way you will have a general idea of ​​where they can be, for example, in your friend’s house. But the information will not be the exact location, as we are used to seeing in the Find My iPhone application.
