Apple Airtags VS GPS trackers - What Is The Difference Between A GPS Tracker & An Air Tag?

[@TEHZorgy]

why are dislikes disabled? are you afraid of the truth?

[@TheNotaRubicon]

KZbin disabled them .. on ALL videos on the entire platform.. Congratulations on what must be the stupidest, most willfully ignorant comment I've ever seen.

[@1D10CRACY]

Per KZbin, "We also saw the dislike count harming parts of our ecosystem through dislike attacks as people actively worked to drive up the number of dislikes on a creator's videos." The creator can still see how many thumbs down there are, but the viewers can not. They also changed the way the algorithm sees the dislike, it doesn't seem to have a negative effect anymore.

Perfect explanation of how airtags work.

[@andrewyoung-n8ary]

Samsung and Tile both have airtag - like devices.

[@TheNotaRubicon]

However it should be pointed out that both Samsung and Tile lack the network of over 1Billion phones actively seeking/collecting location data for them like Airtags have.

[@volvo09]

@@TheNotaRubicon yep. Airbags only work because of how many people use iphones.

[@andrewyoung-n8ary]

I agree and use AirTags on everything, including my concealed handgun, wallet, keys, luggage, dog, and vehicles.

[@chrissewell1608]

My wife bought 4 Apple Airtags, for a recent airlines trip, out of the country. We placed 1 each, inside our checked baggage, and our carry on bags. No problems with flight down. When we returned to the Atlanta airport, we parked at the Domestic gate. While our (everyones) luggage got sent to the International Gate! We were waiting at the Domestic baggage claim... Then I said "Wife, check the Airtags to see where the bags are!" And boom, her phone displayed our 2 tags at the domestic gate, and the other 2 at the International baggage claim! Then we had to take a shuttle bus way the F%#K over to the International side and get our luggage! F'N Delta! But, the Airtags worked, and we found our stuff! (A few other travelers did the same thing.) I don't carry an Iphone, but it did save the day, that time! 😊

Randy, Great information! I have 4 AirTags. 2 on our cars, and 1 on each of our car keys. The service is outstanding‼️So far, have only had to replace 1 battery! From the comparisons you provided, I believe the AirTag is the best option, unless you’re an Android smartphone owner. Tile also makes one, but I’m not familiar with it’s operation. Thanks👍

[@jorqlip]

Are there any gps trackers I can use overseas ? One that has app support.

[@andrewyoung-n8ary]

One clarification should be made. The phone detecting the AirTag sends its own location and not the AirTag’s precise location. A friend had one on her cat and she kept thinking the cat was right next to her.

[@A-Negative]

Not one blink. Well done. Now I can’t I unsee it.

[@fishinman69]

[@k6lcs]

Shortwave reception? Just string a wire outside for general receive!

[@StealthyNomadica]

We invented “shortwave” communications when we were kids by poking a small hole in the bottom of two paper cups and running a piece of twine about 30’ through the hole in each cup from the outside to the inside, and tying a knot to secure the twine in place in the inside of each cup. Then, we would relocate our teams to the requisite distance allowed by the length of the twine, utilizing all the recon training we got from reading our subscription to Boy’s Life Magazine, and we could communicate our plans for exercises such as “Ultimate-Ding-Dong-Ditch” with brown paper lunch bags filled with dog poo that we would put on a target doorstep, light on fire, hit the bell, and sprint to the pre-ordained observation area to extract the maximum laugh value. Too bad KZbin won’t let me upload a diagram of the schematics. We were dumb back in the sixties. If we knew the awesomeness of our invention back then, we would be rich.

Since you did this video I was wondering if you knew anything about dog collar trackers. I go into the mountains a lot and would love to let my dog off her lead and let her run without worry. Is there any trackers (besides the apple) that you know of that doesn't require cell service?

[@TheNotaRubicon]

Tile and a few other companies make small trackers similar to the Apple Airtag, but because they dont have that network of 1-billion+ devices, they arent nearly as effective.

[@durby580]

@TheNotaRubicon rgr that thanks. I've been looking at trackers for hunting dogs but I don't want to spend that kind of money. I'll look into Tile.

[@Bryan-Hensley]

​@@durby580hunting dog trackers is the only thing that will work in the extreme rural areas. The collar has a powerful VHF frequency transmitter but even it's range can drop to a few hundred feet in certain situations. They use a directional antenna to point to the direction of the collar. If you know how radio frequencies travel, you'll do okay with a hunting tracker. Frequencies just don't magically appear, they have to be broadcast. VHF needs more power but will travel through heavy greenery and over hills where cellphone frequencies won't. No, do not trust anything other than hunting dog trackers in the deep rural areas.

How can I get a link to your tracker so I can see where your at at all times Randy?

[@randykitchleburger2780]

I made my own GPS tracker with a USB GPS, USB LTE modem, RasPi 3 and python, it's connected my VPN so I can connect to it from basically anywhere, I can go to the web page and it will show me its current location (I also set up a parser to give me a Google maps link too) and a few other stats. The script also has the functionality to send its location via UDP packets to my desktop, so it will constantly send the location to my computer, and if it goes offline my computer still has its last transmitted locations
