Apple’s iPhone 15 Find My feature is making waves in the tech industry by allowing users to locate their friends up to a remarkable 60 meters away.
This leap in distance tracking is powered by the second-generation Ultra Wideband chip included in the new iPhone 15 series.
Setting the iPhone 15 Find My feature apart from previous iterations is the introduction of the second-generation Ultra Wideband chip.
This new chip is a game-changer, boasting capabilities that are three times more powerful than the U1 chip found in earlier iPhone models and AirTags.
Teknofilo’s recent demonstration confirmed Apple’s claims, showcasing that the iPhone 15 Find My feature can accurately locate friends up to 60 meters away.
Using the iPhone 15 Find My feature is a straightforward process. When iPhone 15 users open the Find My app and select a friend who also owns the device, a “Find: Nearby” button appears on the details card.
This initiates the Precision Finding interface, which continuously updates with real-time distance and directional indicators.
This makes for a user experience that is both intuitive and dynamic.
When comparing the latest Find My feature to its predecessors, the improvement is substantial.
Previous-generation iPhones and AirTags, equipped with the Ultra Wideband U1 chip, had a maximum precision search range of 10–15 meters.
The new chip triples this range, enhancing the ability to find not only lost items but also friends in more expansive locations.
This evolution in range has significant implications for future AirTags models, which are expected to incorporate this advanced chip.
This improvement feature signifies more than just a technological advance; it represents Apple’s dedication to improving user convenience and safety.
The extended 60-meter range can be crucial in various situations, from navigating through crowded festivals to emergency scenarios where immediate location tracking could be lifesaving.
The feature utilizes a second-generation Ultra Wideband chip that triples the tracking range compared to the older U1 chip, extending it to 60 meters.
Open the Find My app and select a friend who also owns an iPhone 15. A “Find: Nearby” button will appear, initiating the Precision Finding interface with real-time distance and directional updates.
