What happened to the find my iPhone option on the watch after the 17. update?
My Apple Watch looks different and can’t ping my iPhone because I can’t find the button or silence button anymore after the latest update.
Apple Watch Series 3, watchOS 8

Because it is now MORE useful. You can press the flat oval side button no matter what is being displayed on your screen and get to Control Center.
You no longer need to get back to a watch face to access the Control Center.

This update ticks my wife and I off. The quick drag up to "find my phone is gone". Doing it with the side button is not an upgrade. Apple is not usually this dumb.
Tell Apple via the feedback link

The control center us now reached by single press of the large side button
Got it! Thank you!
You’re most welcome! Thanks for feeding back.

Agreed

They didn't.
Single press the long side button.
