Do "[Device] left behind" notifications trigger Find my iPad/iPhone alerts when clicked?

Hello xc3m3t3rydr1v3x,

Thanks for your post to Apple Support Communities. We'll do our best to provide some guidance about the Left Behind feature using Find My on your Apple devices. We want to clarify some details about the incident so we properly understand what happened.

While you were driving, you received a "iPad has been left behind" notification on your iPhone. You might have tapped on that alert and no longer see it. Is that correct?

First, if your iPad wasn't with you in the vehicle, but the notice was enabled, it would show that alert on your other Apple device. If you weren't aware you had this set, or want to make adjustments to the setting, here are helpful steps about this feature:

Set up and use Notify When Left Behind in the Find My app - Apple Support

If the alert went off unexpectedly, because your iPad was with you, you may need to make adjustments in Settings and indicate locations you don't want to be notified from.

Add locations where you don't want to be notified

1. On your iPhone, open the Find My app.

2. Tap Devices or Items.

3. Tap a device.

4. Under Notifications, tap Notify When Left Behind.

From here you can:

- See your Home as a location where you won't be notified.

- Tap New Location to add locations where you don't want to be notified when something's left there.

- Tap the delete button  next to a location where you want to be notified when something's left there.

We look forward to hearing back from you, and working through this issue together.

Take care.
