Why is the find my iphone button gone from my apple watch after the new IOS was installed.
Have to go find my device app, look for my iphone icon, play sound (which takes over a minute to play the sound).
Please bring back the slide up from my apple watch and install the button back.
The ping phone function is NOT visible for set up from the links posted…
I am totally not happy with their change. Very poor decision!!!
I really dislike the updates changing how I my phone and watch are configured! I just get used to something and it’s gone - I don’t re-arrange your stuff!
Or you can have Siri find your iPhone… “Hey Siri find my iPhone”.
Press the low, flat button on the right side of your watch. All missing buttons will appear.
Thank you. I can finally find my iphone again. I, too, am not especially happy with having an extra step to do this though.
? Not sure what the extra step is.
Originally it was 'swipe up,' which is one step.
Now it's press the side button, also one step.
I have briefly pressed the flat oval button to bring up the "find my Iphone" feature yet no icon pops up on the screen as before. please advise as the information above in this thread isn't working
I agree it is such a pain now
Thank you Bobharris! YOU are THE BEST and have saved Apple from my wrath. 👍

Do you see this?
Does the display even look similar to this?
If it does look similar, but the iPhone ping is missing, then scroll to the end, and tap “Edit”
If it does not look similar to the above screenshots, then please describe what you are seeing, as we can only go by your descriptions and screenshots you provide.
Thank god I decided to google and came across this answer because I use this feature EVERYDAY!!!
THANK YOU, THANK YOU- You made my day! I was also frustrated to find that I could no longer easily swipe up to tap the phone icon to quickly locate my phone.
Yes exactly scrolling through all the apps why did Apple do this??
Thank you. I too was so disappointed to not have this quick find my phone!!
