Find My precision finding find stops working since iOS 26 and 26.0.1

Precision finding stops working every 24 - 48 hours on my iPhone 15 Pro Max. In the Find My app, I can play a sound on my devices and items, see them on the map, and when they are next to me, they say "with you." However, if I click on "Find," it will just say "searching for signal..." The only temporary fix is to restart my iPhone. I have tried the following for a permanent fix, but nothing has worked: I re-added AirTags and AirPods, reset network settings, and reset location settings. I am out of ideas to try. 

iPhone 15 Pro Max, iOS 26

I was having almost exactly the same problem with the same phone and IOS version. Tried all the recommended fixes but nothing worked until I removed all the synced AirTags from the phone and restarted the phone then added them back. Now precision find works.
