The Find My® network from Apple® Incorporated is an encrypted, anonymous network of hundreds of millions of Apple devices that can be used to locate any device that incorporates the Find My network. The CC2340R5 device can be embedded in any number of items including earbud cases, and wallets, for example. If one of these items is lost but is in proximity to an iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, and all certified Find My-enabled third-party devices, the owner can easily locate the lost item using the Find My app, as shown in Basic Architecture of Find My Network.
The advantages of Find My network include:

The CC2340R5 features 512KB of flash and 36KB of SRAM, output power up to 8dBm, temperature range support up to 125°C, and standby current with full SRAM retention of only 710nA. The CC2340R5 is an excellent choice for Apple Find My network applications such as anti-loss wallets, backpacks, tags, scooters or eBikes, and much more.
CC2340R5 enables plug-and-play implementation of Apple Find My network with a complete software development kit (SDK) plug-in. Additionally, Texas Instruments provides an Apple-validated design. This provides an easy path for Apple certification.
