Apple has had an app that lets you locate your iPhone or AirPods for quite some time. But only now has the company opened things up to third-party providers, enabling you to track everyday things like bicycles and not just your tablet or watch.
Until now, the Find My app was essentially useless if you wanted help finding any smart device that wasn't made by Apple. But the bikes of a Dutch manufacturer are now among the first devices from beyond Apple's infamous "walled garden" to be recognised in the app.
