Apple's 'Find My' Service to Launch in South Korea by Spring 2025

After years of absence, Apple's device tracking network will finally be available in South Korea, addressing user complaints and overcoming regulatory challenges.

  • South Korea was one of the last countries without Apple's 'Find My' service due to stringent local laws.
  • A petition by South Korean users garnered over 9,000 signatures, prompting Apple to reconsider.
  • The Korea Communications Commission has been in discussions with Apple about the service's introduction.
  • 'Find My' will allow users to track devices, belongings, and share locations with friends and family.
  • The service's absence was attributed to difficulties with exporting high-precision map data and privacy regulations.
