iPhones running iOS 15 will remain findable even after being powered off, according to an alert presented to beta users.

The alert reads...

Find My helps you locate this iPhone when it is lost or stolen, even when it is in power reserve mode or when powered off.


You can change this "Find My network" functionality by going to Find My in Settings.

To disable this functionality you need to turn off the 'Find My network' toggle in Settings. This means your device will not locate accessories belonging to other users and your iPhone will not be findable by others.
