Item Safety Alert option missing

The option to turn on “Item Safety Alert” is missing from my iPhone, iOS 16.6


I’ve tried several suggestions on how to make that option available without any results .


Any thoughts on how to make that option available would be great.


thanks

To ensure that your iPhone or iPad can alert you to any unwanted tracking devices, you’ll need to make sure you are running iOS 14.5 or later and make sure the following settings are in place:


    • Go to Settings > Privacy > Location Services, and turn Location Services on.
  • Go to Settings > Privacy > Location Services > System Services. Turn Find My iPhone on.
  • Go to Settings > Privacy > Location Services > System Services. Turn Significant Locations on to be notified when you arrive at a significant location, such as your home.
  • Go to the Find My app, tap the Me tab, and turn Item Safety Alerts on.
  • Make sure Bluetooth is turned on to detect items.


Got this information, and I feel you may need it.


Thanks
