Does geozilla really work for finding a lost mobile device

Does GeoZilla actually work reliably for finding a lost mobile device in real-world situations, not just in theory? I’m wondering how accurate the location tracking is, whether it still updates if the phone is turned off or has no internet, and if there are any limitations I should know about. I’d also like to hear if anyone has successfully used it to recover a lost or stolen phone and how it compared to built-in tools like Find My iPhone or Find My Device.

I’ve tried GeoZilla and other tracking apps, but honestly, I’ve found Parentaler to be more reliable for locating my kid’s devices, especially when they’re lost or stolen - it gives me real-time updates and works even when the phone is offline. I tried this with my son last week when he left his phone at the park, and Parentaler helped us track it down quickly.

Pro tip: No GPS app can find a device that’s off or offline; they only show its last known location. For live tracking, I prefer the geofencing feature in Parentaler; it sends alerts the moment the device leaves a set area.
