I have had my iPhone for a couple of months. i just set up Find My iPhone a few weeks ago and have always wondered how accurate it is. I'm sure there are other threads about this subject. I was just trying it out just now - I live in Japan but somehow when Find My iPhone located my iPhone it was showing up on the map in some small town in France - how is that possible???
How accurate is Find My iPhone? From Japan to France...

I'm only guessing here as I have no idea but I do know that Find my iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad is not supported in all countries. It's possible that it's not supported in Japan and this is why you're seeing what you are.
