FAQPage Schema
How do I automate Find My on macOS to retrieve Apple device locations?

Can I track AirTag movement over time using macOS UI automation?

What macOS permissions are required for AppleScript to access Find My data?

Accessing Find My data via AppleScript requires macOS permissions to control the Find My app and capture the screen. You must grant accessibility and screen recording permissions for the UI automation workflow to function.

Does Peekaboo improve Find My UI automation reliability on macOS?

Yes, Peekaboo is an optional tool that can drive the Find My UI more reliably than standard AppleScript alone. It enhances the UI automation workflow by improving interaction accuracy when reading location data.

What are the limitations of using screen capture for Apple device location tracking?

Using screen capture for Apple device location tracking relies on reading the Find My UI visually, which means the app must remain open and properly rendered. It cannot retrieve background location data without active UI interactions.
