Just be aware of the limitations of the Air Tag: For example: If your cat or dog is running around in a remote location or you forgot your backpack out somewhere in the woods far enough from civilization, there is a good possibility that there will be no Apple Iphones around within 30 ft (and it must also be with its Bluetooth function and location services ON ), plus if there is no WiFi signal nor a Cell Tower signal close enough, then it will NOT show you its location. The Air Tags work great in a well populated city with plenty of iPhones… but not so much in remote places without people with cell phones around. Just remember: there are several conditions that must be met. Remove any one of the following conditions and the AirTag will not work for you until ALL the conditions are met: Necessary Conditions: 1.the AirTag needs any iPhone within 30 to 50 feet of it, 2. which must connected to a cell tower, 3. or connected to a WiFi, and, 4. and it must have its Bluetooth and its Location Services turned ON to update its location. (Remember that the AirTag does not have GPS function in it so it needs to rely on getting and sending its location from a nearby cell phone!). Otherwise, within these limitations, it is s great device!

I've been a tile user for a few years with various different types... THis is because I'm hopeless and used to lose keys and my wallet at home, panic that they weren't at home, then replace cards etc only to find my wallet again. The biggest thing with them is the mixture of form factors (including the few styles with a keyring/lanyard loop) make having an option for a wallet, keys, tech, and several come with self adhesive pads so they can be stuck under or in things. You wouldn't know there was a tile on the bottom of my laptop, or my wallet. They even offer bright pattern tags which look more like a keyring so blend in. Love the idea of the apple network providing constant coverage if they're in lost mode, but man they're ugly. I wouldn't want that thing with the weird loop on my keys, it's too big and bulky. If they slimmed them down and made different shapes for different applications, I'd be more tempted.

BATTERY LIFE: I bought (and activated) four ATs in July of 2021. It is now December of 2022 and I had to replace one battery in September, and one this month. The other two have not yet shown up as being low. So at least Apple's claimed year (and maybe up to 18 months) of battery life can be expected from these. Two of these go into town a lot while two of them are on the road far less often. I suspect that these "report" their location whenever an iPhone comes into range, so if you live where they can report all the time your battery life will be shorter as it will be in use more often. My two that are still going strong after 17 months stay at home most of the time, and I live in a small town where most of the locals have cheap android phones. In town, it is more affluent, so there are far more expensive iPhones in use, and I think that affects battery life.

Takes a few hours to alert someone that an AirTag is following them, so you have time to find your thing. UNLESS they have an iPhone and go to their "Home" marked in their iPhone. That will then alert them that an AirTag has followed them home. Apple prioritizes anti-stalking over anti-theft👍

Thank you for your clear video instruction. I have been trying to put the back on for about 45 minutes with no success. I shall try later on, then if not, I will take it to a jeweller to put back on for me. My thoughts on Apple Air Tags (I run an all Apple environment) I would highly recommend people not but this product. In my experience, being one month, it sometimes works. And in a tracking device which can be mission critical sometimes reliable is unacceptable. I am stuck with my Air Tags as they are a present from my wife and monogrammed, otherwise I would have chucked them in the bin and used my old Tile which has never let me down despite a range of challenging environments. Air Tags are a beautiful looking device, but I have found they just don’t work even in a totally Apple environment,

Thanks for the informative video. I received a set of AirTags for Christmas. I set one up and put it in my son’s jacket so I could see where he went on a snow machine ride. I thought it had gps and would track where he went. Nope. He off he went on the snow machine, and the AirTag showed the last location, which was where he started from - our house! I was pretty disappointed. I’m sure it works great in a city, but not so much in the wilds of northwestern Ontario. And for the record, my son knew about the tag in his jacket 👍
@DavidManningvlog 2 жыл бұрын
Yeah, unfortunately for that use case, it's not GPS based. It's relying on pinging iPhones for its location. So if your son had an iPhone on him as well, then you could search for the AirTag at any point and it would show you its current location, but for tracking, you would be better off just using the iPhone in his pocket and something like Strava to track his rides👍

Do you think we need some sort of disclaimer on the items so customers do not get alarmed that their phone notifies them they are being tracked? Also, does the AT send constant warning of being tracked or just the 1?

I have a side pocket on my wallet that is where the third one goes and the fourth one goes in my wife's purse; so no other holders were necessary to purchase. The accessory market will be a boon for both Apple and third parties, hence the reason for not having a "hole" attachment point on the Apple air tag.

i believe that if you use apple maps and park your car after getting to a destination, it will automatically mark it as parked car. but if its your normal parking spot near your apartment and you dont use maps it probably wont do that. if you leave an air tag somewhere in your car you can always find it, without beeping even if someone stole your car and drove away to another city or country, if it will get in touch for a second with another apple device connected to the network you will be able to see its location and track it down. hope that helps

When you put it in lost mode how long before it alerts someone that the AirTag is close by. My thought is if someone that has an iPhone steals my item. I activate lost mode and then they get an alert saying that an AirTag is close, they turn on the alarm, find my AirTag and throw it in a ditch keeping my item. Kind of defeats the purpose. I sort of want to see if I can disable the alarm and then hide it really really well, to the point the thief decides its not worth it and ditches the item.

So if you have it on something on a child, or a camera bag, and it was around a person person who took it, would it then alert them an airtag was tracking nearby?

Takes a few hours to alert someone that an AirTag is following them, so you have time to find your item. UNLESS they have an iPhone and go to their "Home" marked in their iPhone. That will then alert them that an AirTag has followed them home. Apple prioritizes anti-stalking over anti-theft👍

Assuming a thief does make off with an air tagged item, Won’t the airtag make a sound when their iOS device comes near it? Is there some way to disable the airtag from making any sounds when it’s in lost mode, (unless it’s near your own iOS device)?

I was thinking of opening the airtag and disconnecting the built in speaker. there will be no chime for the theft but their phone will still get the notification if they have an iphone

So the thief who stole my bag is driving away from the scene, will he get a message on his phone that says there is an itag in his car, lol. If someone steals the item , I would have to quickly go into Lost mode before his phone alerts him?

Exactly, my first thought.

Should take a couple hours for the thief to get an alert or when the thief gets to their "home" that they have setup in their iPhone. So you'll have a bit of time to get it into Lost Mode, but you'll need to be decently quick!

Thief tracking is not what this is designed for. It's not even in their marketing. Bottom line, don't rely on this. Just be vigilant of your things, and get insurance.

@@GuyVinmara I get that, it’s the potential thief notifying part I’m not crazy about. But if it takes a day or two to notify it should be enough time.

Hello: do you know that find my network cost money to run. So how it paid for. By us of course, buying holders and accessories. One other point. Unless you have the latest iPhone you can’t do the closeup scanning. So maybe you should bring that up in your next video. Take care
