Apple Beta Software Programconnected to Apple's Find My network with a third party. You can already share an item's location with people in your contacts list, but Apple says this could help in instances wherein you have to rely on the help of a stranger. In case your suitcase goes missing, for instance, you can send its location to an airline staff or airport personnel.
When you choose "Share Item Location" in the Find My app, you'll get the option to share a link that shows the location of your missing item. The link's recipient will be able to open it on any device, even if it's not an iPhone or an iPad, and they'll also be able to see your Apple account email and/or phone number so that they can get in touch with you.
Of course, installing beta software does have its downsides. There's a higher chance of running into bugs, and some apps or features might still not work as Apple had intended. If you don't mind and want to test iOS 18.2, you'll have to sign up to Apple's Beta Software Program and then select new Beta Updates under Software Updates in your device's Settings menu.
