FAQ
How do I share it with someone else?
Tracking and alarm are shared separately. For tracking, open Find My, select the BAF, choose Share Item and follow the prompts — anyone with an Apple account can be added. For the alarm, the admin holds their fingerprint for 10 seconds until it beeps and the LEDs go purple, then the new person taps the sensor 10 times to enroll their finger. They can then arm and disarm.
How many fingerprints can it store?
Up to 20.
Can I remove just one fingerprint?
No. Once a print is enrolled it can't be removed on its own. The only way to remove a print is a full factory reset, which wipes all of them.
My fingerprint won't disarm the alarm.
First, dry and clean both the finger and the sensor if either is wet or dirty, and try again. If it still won't disarm, the customer can silence it through Find My: open the app, select the BAF, tap Play Sound and let it run for a few seconds — the alarm then disables.
Will I get a phone notification if my bike is moved or the alarm goes off?
No, and this is by design, not a fault. The Find My network doesn't push those alerts. The customer checks the device location manually in Find My. Worth saying plainly so they don't read it as broken.
Why didn't the alarm go off when I bumped it right after arming?
It won't arm if it detects movement immediately after arming — it needs at least 3 seconds of stillness to arm successfully, and it keeps trying until it gets that. Again, expected behaviour, not a defect.
It beeps at random times on its own.
That's Apple's anti-stalking feature and it can't be turned off. When the BAF is away from its owner for a long stretch (roughly 6–24 hours) it beeps briefly when it detects movement, so a person it doesn't belong to knows it's there.
Do I have to use my ring finger for the admin?
No, any finger works. The ring finger is recommended because it's easier to remember later and it's not a finger people use to arm and disarm every day, which avoids accidentally re-entering enrolment mode.
My user fingerprint isn't always recognised.
Re-enroll that same finger by adding it again as a new print. This works for user prints only, not the admin print.
Can I add my admin fingerprint as a user print too?
No. Doing that disables the admin fingerprint entirely, and the only fix is a factory reset. Steer customers away from this.
