  1. My friends Huawei P20 phone was dropped on the 15/03/19. The phone was off for a moment but now the person who took it has switched it off. We have tried different apps to get the location but couldn’t.

    In my country police complaint is a waste of time since they don’t do much.

    How can i locate the phone without any involving any authority? Or do you know any apps i could use to locate the phone even if its GPS and Internet is off? I mean can I locate it through his mobile number

    Thanks and await your response
