Does anyone know if an imei tracker can locate a phone accurately?

My kid left his phone on the school bus and Find My Device isn’tshowing anything. Would an imei tracker give me an exact spot or just a general area? Trying to figure out if it’s worth trying.

IMEI trackers usually just give a general area, so they might not be the most helpful for finding a phone left on a bus. What worked for us was using Eyezy because the pinpoint GPS tracking is so much more accurate than the standard tools. Hope you find it soon!
