Locate devices in Find My on Apple Watch
Use Find My to locate Apple devices you’ve lost or misplaced, or get notified if you leave a device behind.
Find the location of a device
If your device is online, you can see its location in the Find My app. For supported devices, Find My can locate the device even if it’s powered off, in Low Power Mode, or in Airplane Mode.
Go to the Find My app
on your Apple Watch.
Tap the button at the top left, then tap Devices.
Turn the Digital Crown to scroll through your devices and see their locations on a map.
(If a device can’t be located, its last known location is shown.)
Tap the name of the device you’re looking for, then do any of the following:
Ping the device: Tap Play Sound.
Get directions to the device’s location: Tap Directions to navigate in the Maps app
.
Receive a notification when you’ve left a device behind
To help keep you from misplacing your device, you can receive a notification when you’ve left your device behind. You can also set Trusted Locations—locations where you can leave your device without receiving a notification.
Go to the Find My app
Tap the button at the top left, then tap Devices.
Turn the Digital Crown until you see the device, then tap its name.
Scroll down to Notify Me, then turn on When Left Behind.
Set a trusted location—such as home.
