Find My and Activation Lock

As we shared on Friday, the Vision Pro has one very perplexing omission: a complete lack of support for Apple’s Find My ecosystem.

Put simply, if you lose your $3,500 headset, there’s no way to track it. That’s both surprising and bizarre, considering that you can strap a $29 Apple AirTag to the headset — technology that Apple seemingly could have just built directly into the headset.

Perhaps the hardware capabilities are there and simply waiting to be unlocked in software — maybe in visionOS 2.0 — but for now, you’ll probably want to grab an extra AirTag to keep with your Vision Pro if you plan to travel. Maybe even buy two, paint a black dot on each, and attach them to the front as googly eyes.

The one piece of good news is that the Vision Pro does support Apple’s Activation Lock, so in the event it does get stolen, the thief won’t be able to do much more than salvage it for parts.
