Apple on Wednesday added Find My Friends, its iOS app used to track friends and family members, to iCloud.com. Originally spotted by 9to5Mac, the addition brings the feature to computers for the first time.
With the release of iOS 9, Apple included has included the Find My Friends app in the operating system, instead of making it an optional install as it has in the past. When OS X El Capitan launched, Apple also included a Find My Friends Today widget for Mac users. The addition of Find My Friends to iCloud.com now makes it possible to gather more information about your friends’ whereabouts from both Mac and Windows.
