How to Set Up Apple Find My Tracking on Your FabFind Wallet (Step-by-Step)

One of the best things about your FabFind wallet is that it can be located right from your iPhone using Apple's Find My network. Setup takes just a couple of minutes, and once it's done you'll be able to see your wallet on a map and get an alert if you leave it behind. Here's exactly how to do it.

Quick version: Make sure your tracker is charged/active, open the Find My app on your iPhone, go to the Items tab, tap Add Item → Add Other Item, follow the on-screen pairing prompt, give it a name, and you're done. Your wallet now shows up on the map any time you need it.

Before you start

• An iPhone (or iPad) updated to a recent version of iOS, signed in to your Apple ID.
• Bluetooth turned on.
• Your FabFind wallet's tracking card active and placed inside the wallet.

Step 1 — Open the Find My app

Find the Find My app on your iPhone (it comes pre-installed by Apple). Open it and tap the Items tab along the bottom.

Step 2 — Add your wallet

Tap Add Item. If you see a list, choose Add Other Item (this is the option for accessories that work with the Find My network). Your iPhone will start looking for the tracker.

Step 3 — Pair it

With the tracker active and nearby, your iPhone should detect it within a few seconds and show a Connect prompt. Tap it to pair.

Step 4 — Name your wallet

Give it a name so it's easy to spot in the app — "Wallet" or "FabFind Wallet" works perfectly — and pick an emoji if you like. Confirm to register it to your Apple ID.

Step 5 — Test it

You're set. Back on the Items tab you'll now see your wallet with its location on the map. Walk into another room and check that it updates. That's the same feature that will help you find it later on. See more on how tracking works →

How to actually find your wallet later

• See its location: open Find My → Items → tap your wallet to see it on the map.
• Play a sound / navigate: use the on-screen options to help pinpoint it when it's nearby.
• Left-behind alerts: enable notifications so your iPhone warns you if you walk away without your wallet — often the difference between "almost lost it" and "lost it."

Troubleshooting

• Tracker not detected? Make sure Bluetooth is on, the tracker is active/charged, and it's close to your phone. Restart the Find My app and try again.
• Already linked to another Apple ID? It must be removed from the previous account first before it can be added to yours.
• Location not updating? The Find My network updates as the wallet passes near other Apple devices, so a stationary wallet in an empty room may update less often.

That's it — a two-minute setup that turns "I lost my wallet" into "it's right here on the map." If you ever misplace it, you'll be glad you did this today.
