How to Add Beats to Find My iPhone
Adding your Beats to Find My iPhone helps in keeping track of your headphones, so you never have to worry about losing them. Follow these steps to ensure your Beats are connected and ready to be tracked.
Step 1: Power On Your Beats

Launch the Find My app on your iPhone.
The Find My app is where you’ll manage all your connected devices. If your Beats are paired and connected, they should automatically appear here.

Under this tab, you will see a list of all devices connected to your Apple ID. Scroll through to find your Beats headphones.

If your Beats appear here, they are now part of your Find My network, enabling location tracking and other features.
Once your Beats are added to Find My iPhone, you can track their location in real-time, play a sound to help locate them, or activate Lost Mode if they get misplaced. This ensures you have peace of mind knowing you can always find your Beats.
