Apple has finally enabled its Find My feature in South Korea, as announced by the company<\/a>, according to a report by Apple Insider<\/em><\/a>. The availability of this feature comes after many years of public demand, as the finding network tool was previously unavailable in the country. This was particularly notable considering that Apple had been selling AirTags throughout the region, which, without Find My, were essentially useless. <\/p>\n

The reason behind Apple’s decision to limit access to Find My in South Korea was never explicitly stated, but it seems to have been connected to local laws<\/a> that could have allowed the government to access location data. Although the service initially appeared during a beta test of iOS 18.4, the official update<\/a> has made it available to all users in the country. It’s worth noting that Find My has been functional in some of South Korea’s outlying territories, such as Baengnyeongdo and Ulleungdo, for some time.<\/p>\n

David Dorn, senior director of Apple’s service products, expressed his excitement about introducing Find My to Korea, stating, “Find My is an essential tool that allows users to track the location of their most valuable possessions, such as friends, family, and personal items, and I am thrilled to bring this functionality to Korea,” in a statement on the company’s local website.<\/p>\n

The Find My feature was first launched in the US in 2019 as part of iOS 13, although its predecessor, Find My iPhone, dates back to 2010. Apple has recently expanded the functionality<\/a> of Find My, enabling users to share the location of a lost item with others on the network, which can be helpful when trying to recover a lost item from a stranger.<\/p>\n
