How to use the iOS 17 Control Center to find your Apple Watch

The iOS 17 Control Center allows you to ping your Apple Watch to make it easy to find. 

Here’s how:

1. Open the Settings app on your iPhone.
2. Tap Control Center, swipe down, then tap the “+” icon next to Ping My Watch.
3. When you want to ping your Apple Watch, swipe down from the top-right corner of your iPhone to open Control Center, then tap  the watch icon.

Note: If you have more than one Apple Watch, the sound will play on the watch that’s selected in All Watches in the Apple Watch app on your iPhone.
