The new Items tab in Find My lets you keep track of personal items with an attached AirTag as well as compatible third-party products using the power of the Find My network, an encrypted, anonymous network of hundreds of millions of Apple devices. Devices in the Find My network use secure Bluetooth technology to detect your missing items nearby and report their approximate location back to you, so you can find them privately and securely.

Get started with your AirTag or compatible third-party product using the steps below.

1. Make sure that your device is ready for setup.
2. If your AirTag is new, remove the wrap around the product and then pull out the tab to activate the battery. Your AirTag will play a sound.
3. Hold your AirTag near your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, then tap Connect.* If you have multiple AirTag and see “More than one AirTag detected”, make sure only one AirTag is near your device at one time.
4. Select an item name from the list, or select Custom Name to name your AirTag and choose an emoji. Then tap Continue.
5. To register your AirTag with your Apple ID, tap Continue again.
6. Tap Done.

Now you can attach your AirTag to your item and see it in the Find My app.

* You can also pair your AirTag in the Find My app. Tap the Items tab, then tap Add Item.

1. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to begin the connection process.
2. Open the Find My app on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
3. In the Items tab, tap Add New Item.
4. Follow the onscreen steps to name it and register it to your Apple ID.

After you successfully add your item, you can see it on the map, play a sound if it’s nearby, enable Lost Mode, and get notified when it is found, depending on which features your item supports.
