I lost my ipad working in a hotel and called the police. Can I have it back?

It depends on what your system uses. If it is above ios7, and you log in to your APPLE ID, and log in to your account on other ios devices with software for finding mobile phones, you can track the approximate location of your ipad, and do operations such as locking, sounding and erasing data on the ipad. As long as the other party doesn't know your password, even if he refreshes the phone, he can't turn off the positioning. Of course, this positioning is only a rough positioning, and the accuracy is generally about 50 meters. If the other party uses unconventional brushing methods, this function is of little use. By the way, it might help if there is monitoring in the store. Sign in now and remotely lock your ipad. Generally speaking, it is unlikely to get it back. May it be well!
