FAQPage Schema
How do I automate tracking Apple device locations with FindMy on macOS?▼

Automating FindMy on macOS uses AppleScript to open the app, navigate between Devices and Items, and read device locations via screen capture. This approach extracts current coordinates and status without a dedicated API.

What do I need to extract AirTag locations using AppleScript automation?▼

Extracting AirTag locations requires macOS with the Find My app signed into iCloud, screen recording permission enabled for capture, and optional UI automation tools like peekaboo to ensure reliable interactions.

Can I use AppleScript to track the movement of Apple devices over time?▼

Yes, AppleScript automation supports tracking device movement over time by repeatedly navigating FindMy and capturing screen locations. This allows periodic reading of coordinates to monitor changes.

Does FindMy automation work without screen recording permissions on macOS?▼

No, screen recording permission is required because FindMy automation relies on screen capture to extract location data. Without it, the system cannot read coordinates or status from the Find My app interface.

What is the best way to read Find My device coordinates when no API is available?▼

The best way to read Find My coordinates without an API is combining AppleScript automation with screen capture. This method navigates the UI and extracts location data directly from the on-screen interface.

Why does my FindMy automation fail to navigate between Devices and Items reliably?▼

FindMy automation may fail due to UI timing issues. Using optional UI automation tools like peekaboo improves reliability by ensuring interactions with the Find My app interface register correctly.
