iOS 27 brings three key new features to Find My: more flexible sharing options, UI enhancements, and Apple Watch updates. First, you can now share your location for a custom duration or until a set date and time, and pause sharing with individuals without sending any notification. A new Hide Location toggle on each person’s card lets you hide your location from specific people, showing them a "No Location Found" message.

Previously, turning off location hid it from everyone.\n\nSecond, Find My receives a refreshed Liquid Glass interface with a new tab bar design matching other Apple apps. The main page now shows more specific location information, so you don't have to tap each person to see their street. The Items tab has a new AirTag-style icon.\n\nThird, for cellular Apple Watch users, sharing your location automatically uses your Watch when away from iPhone or iPad.

The Apple Watch also gets a redesigned unified Find My app integrating people, items, and devices into one interface. These updates aim to give users more control and a smoother experience in iOS 27.
