later this fall is the new Find My Remote function. Long requested by Apple TV users, this feature will help people locate their Siri Remote using the iPhone., the Siri Remote doesn’t have the U1 chip, which is an ultrawideband processor that brings spatial awareness of how far/close an object is.
While it’s impossible to try this feature during the current beta cycle of tvOS 17 and iOS 17, there’s a workaround to showImage source: José Adorno for BGR The third generation of AirPods appears on the Find My app, even though it doesn’t feature the U1 chip. If you lose them in your home, you’ll need to open Find My, tap the AirPods, and then “Find.” After doing that, the iPhone will try to connect with your AirPods using Bluetooth. It will ask you to move around, and once it’s connected, it will say if you are far, near, or right where you left the earbuds.
