The new ‌MagSafe‌ Wallet can now give the location where it was last separated from your iPhone in the ‌Find My‌ app:

Designed with both style and function in mind, the new iPhone Leather Wallet with MagSafe is the perfect way to keep your ID and credit cards close at hand. It now supports Find My, so you can be notified of your wallet's last known location if it gets separated from your phone.

Other than new color options, the ‌MagSafe‌ Wallet continues to be made from tanned European leather with the same shielded design that can contain up to three cards.

The new ‌MagSafe‌ Wallet is compatible with the iPhone 12 mini, iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Pro, and iPhone 12 Pro Max, as well as the iPhone 13 mini, iPhone 13, iPhone 13 Pro, and iPhone 13 Pro Max. For reasons that are not yet known, the ‌MagSafe‌ Wallet's ‌Find My‌ functionality does not work when the wallet is used with Apple's Clear Case.

The new ‌MagSafe‌ Wallet is available now for $59 in Golden Brown, Dark Cherry, Sequoia Green, Midnight, and Wisteria.

Is this going to be added to the old wallet? It sounds like a purely iOS feature to know when it was removed. And the current wallet makes a noise and vibrate when you remove it.

People should stop pushing the YouTubers’ narrative that the wallet doesn’t hold to the phone. After a year of use it never fell and the magnet are just at the perfect strength for the wallet to stay attached but be easily removed when pushing on its edge.

My only complaint with this wallet is that as you keep pushing on its edges to detach it the paint is moving away.

This seems like more a software based change than hardware? I wonder what's new with these, they obviously don't have a battery like the air tags you can continuously track location.

Agreed. This is absurd. The phone already knows you're attaching a magsafe wallet to it. It cant just set a location upon detachment?

at first it seemed like basically an AirTag - but now I'm pretty sure it just remembers the last location of the iPhone when the wallet has been removed (probably noticing that the NFC tag in the Magsafe Wallet is no longer close and then saving the GPS coordinates. Nice feature, but not an AirTag-like experience.
Will probably work with iPhone 12 as well.

Yup, using for close to a year it never falls off. People in thread don't even own one and bitching.
