Find My can be a useful tool, when Apple Maps is accurate
An apparent Apple Maps address mishap led multiple confused and angry people to one Texas man’s home — all claiming Find My says their lost device is at his address.
According to a report from Inside Edition, a man named Scott Schuster from Texas has been bombarded by people looking for their lost Apple devices. They show up at random hours throughout the day and night, claiming Find My shows his address.
Every home in his neighborhood has the same address in Apple Maps — his address. So, no matter where a device was lost in that region, it would show his home address.
He has filed a report with Apple Maps to get this corrected. Schuster is concerned that one day, the wrong person will show up with violent intentions, so he hopes to get the problem resolved quickly.
