### 3/5 — Ok

*2026-08-22, version 1.8*

It’s not perfect it used to work great but know I recommend it to get an update.

### 3/5 — Works only sometimes

*2026-08-21, version 1.8*

I have a teen with autism that attends an adult program where they go out into the community to learn skills. As a mother it’s very worrisome, but I know it’s good and necessary for him. This app works about 3 out of 5 times; often unable to locate. Once it gave me a wrong location completely freaking me out. I don’t understand.

### 2/5 — Doesn’t locate

*2026-08-20, version 1.8*

We switched my daughter to an Apple Watch to locate after 5 hours it doesn’t update and she’s only up the street. Note she’s at school and I have no way to check on her if something happens!

### 4/5 — Still have the old map I want the new map instead

*2026-08-20, version 1.8*

New map

### 2/5 — Works 20 percent of the time

*2026-08-19, version 1.8*

Case and pods can be 100 percent charged and next to me buried in covers and the app just keeps loading to play the sound. Other times it shows the device I’m looking for moving around the map like someone else has it when it is just sitting in one place somewhere. I expected Apple to make the improvements they needed to make over the years for this little app. Instead we are just getting updates no one is asking for.

### 3/5 — Freezing and Update

*2026-08-19, version 1.8*

This app needs to be updated more often. Constant freezing and it takes forever to show an updated location.

### 3/5 — Don’t like it

*2026-08-17, version 1.8*

Freezes all the time when I try to track a family member and also lags

### 2/5 — Less than 50%

*2026-08-17, version 1.8*

I have a Wallet tracker and it will say I left it at the store I stopped at 200 miles away when it is in my hand.. I have an air tracker on my  13-yr old dog and he can be two blocks away and it says he's at home. or he can be one block away and it says he's on the other side of the pond. Disappointing performance. 2 stars is probably too generous.

### 1/5 — Bogus

*2026-08-17, version 1.8*

How is your own tracking program useless. This makes me want to switch to Samsung. I stg when I’m older I’m fading Apple.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2026-08-17, version 1.8*

I was looking for my AirPods and it took me to this random address and turns out they were in my bedroom all along

### 1/5 — Ugh

*2026-08-17, version 1.8*

Not a good app, I used it a few times to try to find my AirPods and it said they were outside so I obviously looked and couldn’t find them. After a few days of searching for my AirPods I gave up. About a week later I found my AirPods in my dryer. This app is horrible for trying to find stuff.

### 1/5 — Big booty cheeks

*2026-08-16, version 1.8*

Ts is not tuff tortilini🥀🥀🥀😭😭😭😭😭😭

### 1/5 — Can’t Find My

*2026-08-16, version 1.8*

Intermittent working, then can’t find anything for hours. Useless part time app

### 1/5 — Literally the worst

*2026-08-16, version 1.8*

Any other tracking app is better than the built in system they have which is a damn shame. Whenever something tries to work the app can’t seem to connect to the servers so wtf

### 2/5 — Help

*2026-08-15, version 1.8*

The Find My App turns off by itself constantly. It started after an iPhone update. I have searched for a remedy and followed the instructions and it still turns off by itself. Any ideas?

### 2/5 — It’s laggy

*2026-08-15, version 1.8*

App is good but for the past month it’s been so laggy when I look on the app to see where my father or where my boyfriend is it says 20 minutes ago then I wait for almost two hours and it never updates to where they are at

### 1/5 — Useless app

*2026-08-15, version 1.8*

Piece of garbage. Doesn’t make the sound when trying to find device. It days pending sound forever. How are we suppose to use the app if it doesn’t work. Worst app ever

### 1/5 — App Review

*2026-08-23, version 1.8*

Our family has used this app for years, and unfortunately , the location tracking has been very inaccurate lately. It will show someone being outside a location, sometimes across the street, or even a wooded area, when they are actually inside the location just 10-20 feet away. 

This has become a serious concern because we rely on this app for accurate location information.

Please look into this tracking issue and fix it. We really hope this can be resolved because our family of  8 has trusted and used this app for years.

### 1/5 — Wildly unreliable

*2026-08-22, version 1.8*

Never fails that when I actually need it I’ll wait 10+ minutes for it to locate something if it does at all.

### 1/5 — Never works

*2026-08-22, version 1.8*

As much tracking as they do. They offer products like AirPods and it has never in my life worked when it comes to the other features. These products are so expensive and they never invest into making all the features to work properly. It is very disappointing. Even iCloud and storage everything buffers when they should be instantly viewable.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2026-08-22, version 1.8*

Find My used to work perfect but now I don’t know what Apple did and now it freezes and you have to keep opening and closing the app just to get some location. Horrible app and don’t know what happened but they need to fix it.

### 1/5 — App isn’t accurate like it used to be to be

*2026-08-21, version 1.8*

Lately it freezes and doesn’t give accurate locations. This app needs an update

### 1/5 — Hours or days behind

*2026-08-21, version 1.8*

Location is not accurate. Notifications are hours and sometimes days behind.

### 1/5 — Fix the accuracy

*2026-08-19, version 1.8*

It’s a decent app, but it has terrible accuracy. My brother lost his phone riding his bike and I couldn’t find the phone’s location. I found it after 15 min. Fix the dang accuracy

### 1/5 — Anytime I’ve needed it, it doesn’t work

*2026-08-19, version 1.8*

Anytime I actually cannot find my iPad or AirPods or anything, it’s never correct on the location. Like right now, can’t find my AirPods. But it’s insisting it’s directly in the room with me, “Now” in green, and it’s not. It’s even failed to play the tone to alert me where it is, but it still says yep the AirPods are here. They aren’t. This is ALWAYS the experience.

### 1/5 — Constantly Freezes or Times Out

*2026-08-17, version 1.8*

My husband and I share locations and any i try and track his location so i can get dinner started it’s always frozen to his work location and says it’s from 9 /11/15 sometimes even longer then that. And will not update. I can be on the phone with him and he can be around the corner and his location is still delayed and behind. It never updates accurately or in real time.

### 1/5 — Slow app

*2026-08-17, version 1.8*

Thing is always loading but can never find location!

### 5/5 — I think it’s GREAT!!

*2026-08-22, version 1.8*

I Locate my Dad and wife and brothers alll the time. It’s pretty Chill!!!

### 5/5 — ITS AMAZING! I would just add one thing

*2026-08-21, version 1.8*

Make it so the AirPod case, Left AirPod and Right AirPod are on there so you can find them - I always accidentally fall asleep with the Right one in and I can never find it so I go on Find My to see but it doesn’t have it, so now I have to manually search for it

### 5/5 — Find my

*2026-08-15, version 1.8*

I  l❤️ve find my because I can see where my family are on holiday and cool stuff like that.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

### 5/5 — Apple really do care about visually impaired people

*2026-08-15, version 1.8*

Dear apple, thank you for building this Amazing app. I lost my iPhone and I looked at Find My on my iPad and I am a visually impaired person who uses VoiceOver on their iPhone. Luckily, there is a place sound feature that is built in to the app so if you are visually impaired, you will be able to hear vibrations and hear the sound then you can simply follow the sound and then find out. And I can tell that you definitely care about people because you have VoiceOver on your Apple iPhone products that you make. I’ve never really heard of AirTag but I probably will do if I ask my dad about AirTag as he knows a lot about Apple.

### 5/5 — found a lost phone in the midst of panic!!! thank you so much!!

### 5/5 — Feature request: alert when item arrives to my location

*2026-08-10, version 1.8*

Would love an alert if my tagged pet arrives to my location after he wanders away

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-08-09, version 1.8*
