## What it is
FindMy.py is a Python library for querying Apple's Find My network to fetch and decrypt the location of AirTags, Apple devices, and custom OpenHaystack tags, without needing a Mac. It supports Apple account sign-in with 2FA, accessory key management, nearby device scanning, and both async and sync APIs.

## Use cases
- track the location of my AirTag from a Linux server using Python
- build a custom location tracker with OpenHaystack tags and query their positions
- fetch and decrypt Find My location reports without owning a Mac
- scan for nearby Find My devices and read their public keys
- integrate AirTag location lookup into my own Python project
- sign in to an Apple account with 2FA to retrieve device locations

## When to choose
- you want a maintained, well-documented Python library for the Find My network instead of fragmented research code
- you need cross-platform access (no Mac required) to AirTag or iDevice locations
- you want both async and sync APIs and support for official and DIY accessories

## When to avoid
- you need a polished end-user tracking app rather than a developer library
- your use case depends on unofficial Apple APIs that may break at any time and you need guaranteed stability
- you are not comfortable with the legal/ToS implications of reverse-engineered Apple services

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active
- function: sdk, http-client, cryptography
- domain: reverse-engineering, developer-tools, privacy
- platform: python, cross-platform, cli
- tags: airtag, find-my, apple, location-tracking, openhaystack, offline-finding, bluetooth, async, automation
