The Find My app makes it easy to keep track of your Apple devices. Locate items you've attached AirTag to. And keep up with friends and family. It works on iPhone, iPad and Mac — even if your missing devices are offline. And your privacy is protected every step of the way.

Find your Apple devices.

Jan 27, 2019 Right-click a backup to see your options. Click Show in Finder on the right-click menu. This will open the selected backup folder in a new Finder window. Find the backup folder in the Finder window. The backup you select in the 'Device backups' list will be highlighted with blue in the Finder window. In iOS 13 and iPadOS, Apple combined the Find My Friends and ‌Find My‌ iPhone apps into a single app, called '‌Find My‌.' ‌Find My‌ works similarly to the two apps it replaces.

Set up Find My on Mac. Before you can share your location with your friends and find your Apple devices and items, you need to turn on Location Services and Find My Mac. You can do this when you open Find My for the first time or later in System Preferences. I can still see the Mac on my 'Find my iPhone' list, however I am unable to remove it if it is offline or online. The 'X button' to delete it is unavilable when viewing from the iCloud website. If I use my iPad or iPhone to access Find my iPhone, I am able to remove it by swiping and then pressing delete, however it will eventually reappear.

You take your devices everywhere. Which means you might leave them anywhere. Whether they're under a sofa pillow or in a conference room, chances are they won't be lost for long. You can get help finding your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Apple Watch, Mac, AirPods or AirTag right in the Find My app.

See all your devices on a map.

Is your iPad at home or back at the office? Use the map to get a full picture of where your devices are — and where a missing one might be. Some devices can also mark their location when the battery is critically low, to help you find them even if they run out of power.

You can even find devices that are offline.

If your missing device can't connect to the internet, the Find My app can still help you track it down using the Find My network — hundreds of millions of iPhone, iPad and Mac devices around the world. Nearby devices securely send the location of your missing device to iCloud, then you can see where it is in the Find My app. It's all anonymous and encrypted to protect everyone's privacy.

AirTag can help you find just about anything.

Misplaced your keys? Forgot your purse? If they have AirTag attached, they won't be lost for long. The Find My network can help you track down items on a map. You can play a sound on your AirTag to find something hiding nearby — you can even get the distance and direction to your AirTag with Precision Finding.2

Find your friends.

Invite friends and family members to share their locations. So you can keep in touch with one another, coordinate around an event or know when a family member has arrived home safely.

See where everyone is on a map.

When you share your location with friends, it's easier for you to find each other and stay connected. Share your location for an hour, a day or indefinitely — it's up to you.

Get notifications when they've left or arrived.

You can set up notifications for when friends and family leave or arrive at a place. They'll be notified when you set it up, so no one's privacy is compromised. You can also receive alerts and notifications when your child has arrived at or departed from school.

What else can Find My find?

Find My technology can now be built into all kinds of things — like bikes, headphones and more. So anything that works with Find My can be added right next to all your Apple stuff in the Find My app.

Everyone's location data stays private.

Just like every Apple product, Find My is designed to put you in control of your data. Location information is only sent to Apple when you actively locate your device, mark it as lost or enable Send Last Location. Data is encrypted on Apple's servers and kept for no more than 24 hours. And when the Find My network is used, everyone's information is kept private — even from Apple.
