Find your AirPods
Find your AirPods
Use Find My to find your AirPods. You can also set alerts to warn you if you’ve left your AirPods behind, or mark them as lost if you can’t find them.
When the Find My network is on, you can see the location of AirPods 3, AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), AirPods Pro, or AirPods Max in the Find My app for up to 24 hours after they last connect to your device, even if they’re not nearby.
Note: If your AirPods 3, AirPods 4 (ANC), AirPods Pro, or AirPods Max are used with multiple Apple Accounts (for example, if you lend or share AirPods), only the person who turned on the Find My network can see them in the Find My app.
You can see the current or last known location of your AirPods in the Find My app.
If you have AirPods 4 (ANC), AirPods Pro 2, or AirPods Pro 3, you can also play a sound on the charging case.
If your AirPods aren’t connected to your device and you don’t have the Find My network turned on, the sound plays the next time they connect to a Wi-Fi or cellular network.

If you need to get to a safe location and you want to turn off your device, but you’re concerned that someone else may use this feature to find your location, you can temporarily turn off the Find My Network when you power off the device by tapping iPhone Findable After Power Off (under Slide to Power Off) and following the onscreen instructions. Use the task below if you want to disable this feature.

CAUTION: When you turn off Find My [device] and Find My network, you aren’t able to locate, lock, or erase your device if it’s lost or stolen.

On your iPhone or iPad: Go to Settings > [your name] > Find My > Find My iPhone > Find My network.

Disabling this feature means you can’t use it if your device is lost or stolen and powered down.

A's note: I'm researching whether turning off Find My iPhone impacts location sharing with 911 and Emergency Contacts. I don't believe it does but I will get back with answer.
