There’s a robust ecosystem of Find My accessories on the market nowadays. All of these accessories would make great additions to your life. After all, what’s a better investment than a way to keep track of their most important possessions?
As a refresher, Find My accessories broadcast a low-energy Bluetooth signal picked up by nearby Apple devices. They do not rely on GPS technology. Instead, that location is transmitted securely and privately to the Find My network. This means that your Find My-enabled item is locatable even if you are miles away, so long as someone with an Apple device happens to be nearby.
iOS 18.2, released in December, further upgraded the Find My network with a new system for sharing item locations.
AirTag
You can’t have a list of the best Find My accessories without including Apple’s AirTags. Packed with a U1 chip for Precision Finding support, a built-in speaker, and more, AirTags are a must-have for attaching to your luggage, backpack, keys, and other accessories.
AirTags have also improved significantly since they were first released in April 2021. Apple has added new anti-stalking features, upgraded notification alerts, and more.
AirTags are not without their faults as they only come in one form factor, lack a built-in attachment mechanism, and are nearly four years old. Still, they represent the best way to start with the Find My ecosystem.
