While the Apple Watch has long been used to find a lost iPhone, Find My will allow you to find your Apple Watch.

If you have an Apple Watch or any recent connected watch, you’ve probably used it to find your lost smartphone (in the case of the Apple Watch, your iPhone).
According 9to5Mac, your iPhone will be able to return the favor. To do this, it will have to run on iOS 17 since it is one of the new features of the interface presented at WWDC 2023. A new tile appears in the control center to “ping” the Apple Watch. To work, it will need both devices to have their Bluetooth enabled.
How to activate it?
If you’re one of the lucky ones who’s already installed iOS 17 (at your own risk), here’s how to activate said tile.
You have to open the settings, go to control center and then add the “Ping my Watch” button. There you go, all you have to do is open the control center.
iOS 17 should be released in its full version next September, at the same time as the iPhone 15.
