Find My: Can't share airtag or set "left behind" notifications since iOS18.4

Hi


I upgraded my iPhone 13 to iOS18.4, and since then I noticed that in Find My, the settings "Share Airtag" and "Notifications" are not functional anymore.

Share Airtag doesn't have the "Add person" anymore and just taping on it does nothing.

Notifications always says it's not supported, and same, tapping on it doesn't do anything.


That's for all my devices/items.

I checked on my older iPad (still with iOS17) and these work as intended.

I tried with 1 airtag to remove it and add again to my account, but no change.


Anyone else noticed this, or is that just me ?


iPhone 13 Pro Max, iOS 18

See what changes have been made on iOS 18.4.


It's not always the iOS update's fault!  Many things can cause phone problems.  If you tell people you think it's an iOS update, it might make it harder to fix or find a solution for the real issue.



Remember, the right question often leads to the solution!



Was/Is your device Jailbroken? If that's the situation, please be informed that attributing the issues to iOS updates may not be accurate.



iOS updates aim to enhance user experience, boost security, and fix bugs rather than disrupt core features. The majority of the issues after updates might stem from underlying, unmentioned factors. Updates won't typically alter personal data but may refine settings or features. Backup before major updates for safety. Review Apple's update details and backup advice for a smooth process.


Kindly consider checking your settings and addressing any device issues before attributing the issue to external factors. This could be a pure coincidence that the iOS update affected the iPhone functions.


Before initiating a standard iOS update, it's advisable to create a backup. Have you completed this step? If yes, proceed with the restoration from the backup.

That's why I'm asking here if anyone else noticed this or if it's just me. That would give a clue if it could be my phone or update (as that started just after the update...).

My device is not jailbroken.

I already tried the basic things like rebooting, and removing/re-adding the items, but no luck, so I'm trying to figure out what could have led to that, the iOS update being one of the factors.

I do still get notifications that were already configured, but I basically have read-only access to everything in the Find My app now... I can't manage notifications and can't add nor remove people on shared tags (those that were already shared still have access, but my son somehow lost access to his own keys and I can't share it with him (not anyone)).
