Is it not possible to Find My iPhone from Apple Watch? Went to biking and soon noticed my phone is missing. I was quite sure that I left it home, but I thought I should check it. But there seems to be no way to Find it from AW. Is it really not possible? (AW5/Cellular activated).
 
Scroll up from the bottom on your Watch screen to bring up the control centre. At the very bottom you'll find an iphone icon. Click on that and your iphone will ping!
 
This works only if you are located nearby (Bluetooth range). I was looking for a solution when you are kilometres/miles away. Like it works with iPhone > you can locate your Mac, AirPods etc.

The app PhoneBuddy will show you on a map the last location your watch and phone were connected via WiFi or Bluetooth. Excellent app for warning you about leaving your watch or phone behind etc.
