Today, Apple officially announced a new feature coming in iOS 18.2: Share Item Location. This Find My function lets users share their AirTag or third-party item tracker location with someone or an airline. BGR already reported on that feature being available with the previous iOS 18.2 beta, but Apple has now confirmed it will play a big role in this future software update. Apple says over 15 airlines will offer support for this Find My feature, including Aer Lingus, Air Canada, Air New Zealand, Austrian Airlines, British Airways, Brussels Airlines, Delta Air Lines, Eurowings, Iberia, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Lufthansa, Qantas, Singapore Airlines, Swiss International Air Lines, Turkish Airlines, United, Virgin Atlantic, and Vueling. That being said, these airlines will begin accepting Find My item locations as part of their customer service process for locating mishandled or delayed bags. Cupertino says more airlines will be added over time. “We’ve worked closely with Apple to incorporate Share Item Location into our baggage recovery process and are excited to make this feature available to our customers soon,” said David Kinzelman, United’s chief customer officer. “We know many of our customers are already traveling with AirTag in their checked bags, and this feature will soon make it easier for them to share location information with us safely and securely, helping our customer service agents work more efficiently and giving our customers added peace of mind. We plan to accept Find My item locations in select airports initially, with the goal of introducing the service systemwide in early 2025.” While adding airlines might take a few months, the iOS 18.2 Share Item Location feature will still be useful for those sharing an item for a brief period. Suppose you lose your keychain in a restaurant. You can offer a link using Share Item Location to the place's manager, and they can track your AirTag using their iPhone 11 or newer with Precision Find. Additionally, you can already share your AirTag location with friends and family members using the Find My network. Apple says iOS 18.2 will "soon be available" to all iPhone users. Below, we have gathered everything we know about this future software update so far.

Polyethylene (PE) is one of the most widely used and versatile plastic materials globally, prized for its cost-effectiveness, lightweight properties and ease of formability. These characteristics make PE indispensable across a broad spectrum of applications, from packaging materials to structural plastics.

A team of scientists from the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) and BGI Research has uncovered the intricate mechanisms by which immunoglobulins influence the aging process, a finding that might reshape our understanding of aging.

When Mount St. Helens erupted in 1980, lava incinerated anything living for miles around. As an experiment, scientists later dropped gophers onto parts of the scorched mountain for only 24 hours. The benefits from that single day were undeniable—and still visible 40 years later.

Extreme weather is contributing to undocumented migration and return between Mexico and the United States, suggesting that more migrants could risk their lives crossing the border as climate change fuels droughts, storms and other hardships, according to a new study.

An international team of astronomers has inspected long-term evolution of quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs) from a QPE source designated eRO-QPE2. The study found that QPEs from this source are remarkably stable over the investigated period of over three and a half years. The finding was reported November 1 on the pre-print server arXiv.

There's no cure for a fungal disease that could potentially wipe out much of global banana production. Widespread adoption of cement paths, disinfection stations, and production strategies could net 3–4 USD of benefits for each dollar invested in Colombia.

New research led by a team from Royal Holloway and the World Bank asserts that teaching methods should improve, after discovering that global literacy goals will not be met without major intervention.

The sounds of barking elephant seals are again in the air along the breeding grounds of Península Valdés, Argentina—but it's quieter. Almost exactly a year after a massive outbreak of H5N1 highly pathogenic avian influenza killed more than 17,000 elephant seals, including about 97% of their pups, scientists estimate that only about a third of the elephant seals normally expected here returned.

The unusual odor of the titan arum, commonly called the corpse flower because its scent is reminiscent of rotting flesh, draws crowds of curious visitors to greenhouses around the world during its rare blooms. What also intrigues scientists is the corpse flower's propensity for warming itself up just before blooming through a process known as thermogenesis, an uncommon trait in plants that is not well understood.
