The TwelveSouth PlugBug with Find My is now official. As the name suggests, it has built-in Find My support.

TwelveSouth Launches 2 New USB-C Chargers with Built-in Find My Support – Good Luck Losing a Charger Ever Again

Who would’ve thought we needed Find My in a charger, right? TwelveSouth did. The integration doesn’t just show you the charger on a map. Once you see it in the Find My app on your iPhone or iPad, you can even ring it so you know exactly where it is – hidden behind a sofa, tucked away in the corner of a couch, etc.

I’m going to be very honest here – I’ve seen support for Find My in a lot of strange accessories but this one takes the cake.

Apart from its Find My superpowers, the PlugBug is a very, very good USB-C charger. It’s available in two flavors – 50W and 120W. The 50W one has 2 USB-C ports, while the 120W one has 4. If you’re someone who carries around too many devices at once, the 120W version is a very good choice.

The one thing I personally like about this charger is how the USB-C ports face downwards, rather than forward. This means the charger is never front heavy and knocking it off a wall outlet is going to be a difficult task, too. Secondly, if you’re using this charger behind a table or a sofa, the downward facing ports won’t get in the way of anything.

Check out the product video below and see the charger in action:

The 50W model costs $69.99, while the 120W will set you back $119.99. Though not cheap at all, but given the amount of things it does in return for you, I would totally drop my money on this, especially the 120W version.

At the time of writing, both chargers are up for reservation and will ship on the 16th of September. If you are going to buy the iPhone 16 and looking for a brand new charger for it, this is actually a very good choice. It fits right into the ecosystem.
