adding precise location and directions for FINDMY items.
i think it would be a huge help if u were able to accurately find your devices, it’s hard enough going to FINDMYIPHONE and not being to tell where exactly it is and your not even getting all details for the area around plus, when you are in the area of your phone it’s so hard to locate it especially when you’re in a busy of grassy area, There should also be a feature for the phones like there is for the airpods to see if your getting hotter or colder using another persons device to locate your phone. Another thing it’s not like it’s selling anyone’s information especially if the item was stolen and you won’t be able to track anyone unless using there apple id and u have to know the email and password and most don’t do it’s all around a good idea and a big help when searching for something that may hold a meaning for some of us, some people have their whole life in their imagine losing something like that. Thats why we need accurate , precise , location nd directions for find my iphone

Find My Network TCKM002 Test Case Error
When TCKM002 is tested in the Key Management Test case, the iPhone will send a reset command to the accessory after selecting "Set+Verify key Rotations" in the FMCA app, resulting in the BLE disconnection. Sometimes iPhone will not send a Connection Indication Packet after disconnection. FMCA APP displays an error like attachment. May I ask why?

AirPods lost mode in Find My
What’s the point of Lost Mode for AirPods ? Unlike AirTags where once lost mode is activated and these cannot be paired even if resetted, AirPods’ full panel of features can be enabled once they are resetted. We can’t even change the message appearing, and Apple says a message with the phone number appears when the lost AirPods are paired, but it’s false. I really don’t see where Apple is trying to go.

Find My unavailable
While trying to turn on Find My, I got a pop-up saying it was unavailable (Share My Location Unavailable). I tried every solution besides factory reseting. I also noticed that my Time and Date are incorrect, although automatically set time has been turned on and it seems to 'work'. But when trying to use a service that requires your precise date and time, it gives an error as well. Maybe this has something to do with it? Can anyone tell me what other solutions I could try for this?

Find My network option for AirPods Pro not visible on iOS 15.4. Is it a bug or is it intended??
As title. I just upgraded my iPhone 12 Pro Max to iOS 15.4 Developer Beta 1 from iOS 15.3. Previously, the "Find My network" option was visible in the bluetooth setting for my AirPods Pro. However, after upgrading, this option is missing. Is it a bug or is that something Apple intends to do in the future. I do NOT want to enable this feature because it drains the battery on my AirPods Pro.

Can't find my iPhone in Find My
So I was wanting to get an iPhone 13 mini that my friend is selling me, but when I tried to set it up, I can't get past a screen that says " There's an issue with this iPhone, it's been reported lost or stolen.....", So we took a look under his Devices in FindMy, and the iPhone doesn't show there, but the phone displays a message that says it is Owner locked and then it goes back to the "lost or stolen" screen. Any advice?

Limitations of Find My app
I've just started using the Find My app and it has limitations I don't like (or maybe I don't understand how to use the app.) On the left side of the app is a pane that contains either People, Devices, or Items. But I can't resize the pane (larger, to the right) to be able to read more data in that pane. Most apps, like Safari, allow me to resize the left pane. Why does this app prohibit that common feature? Also, I'd like each item in the pane to show more information. As it is now, I have to click on the item in the pane then read the details in the pop-up on the right pane, but if that doesn't show what I want, I have to click on the "info" symbol popup button to get more information. And then the pop-up window is in such a small font on my screen, and the text is printed in a dark-grey on light-grey background, it's very hard to read on a 4K monitor. And the app doesn't let me resize the text (Safari allows me to press keys to make the interface more readable.) Apple makes such a big deal about "Accessibility" but this app is so darn inaccessible. And then to make matters worse, the Find My app doesn't have a system dictionary attached to it, so I can't use AppleScript to fix its problems. And then to make matters even worse, the Shortcuts App in Monterey doesn't come with any tools for getting data out of the Find My app. This app seems to go against most of Apple's principles for good app design. It's like a half-baked cookie. The Find My help app does have resizeable text and panes, but the Find My app itself does not.

Share my location unavailable
Hello All, I installed the iOS 15 developer beta onto my iPhone 11 Pro and put back the iOS 14.6. Thereafter my icloud account is corrupted at the share my location option. Find My is not logged in into my account therefore I cannot see my devices and especially my Airtag which is bad because I cannot use it. In settings when I check the share my location section a window is popping up which says Share My Location Unavailable. Server issue, Try again later. I made factory reset and tried out everything what I found on the forums. The problem should be related to my account because share my location and find my on the same phone same SW another account is working well. Please help and advise, Thank you,

Getting information about all devices connected to iCloud
There is a class in UIKit representing current device called UIDevice. However, I need for my application to know the battery level of other devices. This can be seen in the Find My app for example. Is there a possibility of obtaining information about all devices connected to iCloud in my app?
