FAQPage Schema
How do I track Apple devices using Find My on macOS without a CLI?▼

You can track Apple devices by programmatically opening Find My on macOS, performing screen captures, and analyzing UI text through AppleScript or Peekaboo UI automation. This provides a reproducible automation method for locating owned devices.

Can I automate AirTag location tracking on macOS?▼

Yes, you can automate AirTag location tracking on macOS by navigating the Items tab in the Find My app using AppleScript or Peekaboo UI automation. It captures and analyzes UI text to retrieve current locations.

What are the requirements for running Find My automation on macOS?▼

Find My automation requires macOS with Find My signed in, screen recording permission, and optionally Peekaboo for reliable UI interaction. No external APIs are needed to execute the tracking scripts.

How does timeline tracking for patrol routes work with Find My?▼

Timeline tracking for patrol routes works by periodically capturing Apple device locations over time. The automation extracts coordinates at intervals to build a historical route map for tracked devices and AirTags.

AppleScript vs Peekaboo UI automation for Find My: which is better?▼

AppleScript reads Find My device locations natively, while Peekaboo provides optional UI automation for more reliable interaction. Peekaboo is preferable for complex UI navigation across Devices and Items tabs where AppleScript may lack direct access.

Why is my Find My automation not capturing device locations?▼

Find My automation fails if macOS screen recording permission is not granted or the Find My app is not signed in. Ensure Peekaboo is installed if the script relies on UI automation instead of native AppleScript commands.
