This year’s “one more thing” at Apple’s Autumn Conference may be an anti-lost device.

As early as April of this year, 9to5Mac broke the news that Apple is developing A smart look-up accessory like Tile, MacRumors recently discovered the trace of this accessory from the beta version of iOS, further confirming the authenticity of the rumor.

The image disclosed by MacRumors is similar to the 9to5Mac released in June. The image shows that it will be a small round label with an Apple logo in the middle, similar in appearance to most Bluetooth trackers. However, the image may be just a model or placeholder, and the final design of the label may vary.

MacRumors also confirmed that the hardware code inside Apple is “B389”, and some text descriptions also reveal its functions, such as “marking your daily items with B389, and never losing them.”

As previously reported, this tag will work closely with the new “Find My” app in iOS 13, which merges the previous “Find My iPhone” and “Find My Friends” apps in the new system. For “Find My”, MacRumors said that the “Find My” version of the beta version of iOS 13 has an “items” tab for tracking the location of the user’s personal items.

From the introduction of the beta version, users will be notified when they are separated from the marked items. If necessary, you can click the corresponding button in the “Find My” application to make the label sound, or you can set the notification without notification. “Safe Location”, you can also share the location information of tagged items with family and friends.

Unlike the common Bluetooth anti-lost devices on the market, according to previous reports, B389 introduced a crowdsourcing network, that is, after an item is marked as lost, any Apple device can read the label and obtain it with the owner. Contact, this is very close to the current leader in the intelligent search market.similar. Tile claims to have the largest community of objects in the world. After the tiled tiles are marked as lost by the owner, when other Tile users appear nearby, the tiles can send location information to the owner via other users’ mobile phones.

In addition, MacRumors said that after delving into the code, they thought that B389 might introduce Apple’s ARKit framework like Pixie Tracker to find objects. Users can use the iPhone to scan the room to find out the missing objects. The internal description is This way: “Go a few meters and move your iPhone up and down until a balloon appears.”

The message “Twist the back of the object and remove the battery” indicates that Apple’s anti-lost label will be equipped with a removable battery, which may be the same button battery as its competitors, and may send the final position of the item when the battery is low.

Because the beta system is the June version, the official version may be partially adjusted. Of course, this tracker will not necessarily appear at the press conference on September 10th. In short, the time from the answer is revealed. It is not far away.
