*You have nothing to lose if you put an airtag on a pet or child. It will still give you the possibility to find them. You're more likely to lose them in a town or city than in the woods, so it is a good thing to have.*

Parents dont want to rely on AirTags to find their kids or pets. It's just a decent priced tech which increases the chances of finding them in case they do get lost. It's better than no tracking tech.

I agree with you on the "don't rely on it" statement. However, if a child runs off in a shopping centre then having an Airtag attached to their backpack then that has surely got to give the parent a better chance of finding them quickly.

A thief can grab your property or your kid with an airtag in their backpack, then mark their current location as home or work and they will then get a notification that your airtag is covertly tracking them in your stolen property. They would cause it to ‘sound off’ then they find it and toss the tag, voila. That will teach you for trying to be a stalker. Basically, Apple has decided to lump all their customers into the “creeper category” when actually they just want to secure their property or loved ones. In other words it’s worthless as a theft deterrent. Sorry but true.

​ I agree with @Maria East Coast. Don't suggest this to people. Giving people this idea will give them some false security, when they need to be watching their kids.

I'm sure people will do it anyways, so I suggest that you also engrave them with your phone number so you can get your kid back faster. (People might not know to scan it)

If your pet gets out and it DOESN’T have an AirTag attached, you aren’t going to get a position report. If it gets out and it DOES have an AirTag attached, you have a reasonable chance of getting a position report if it wanders by someone with an iPhone. Granted, there is no guarantee, and it’s not as good as a GPS/cellular collar, but it’s better than nothing. I see no downside to attaching an AirTag to a pet and at least the potential for recovering your pet. So the admonition “Don’t put an AirTag on a pet” is wrong. The proper warning is “Don’t rely on an AirTag to track a pet or a child.”

For what it’s worth, the halo tag is ridiculously hit or miss. I used to get alerts from the app that my dog was out when she was asleep on the couch with me. Conversely the one time she had it on her and got loose, the app said she was in my back yard. I returned it and left a pretty harsh review.

The Airtag can be somewhat useful as a dog tracker in urban areas where there are other iOS devices nearby. However, in rural areas or places with unstable cellular signals, it may not be suitable. You could try the Aorkuler dog tracker, which is similar to the Airtag but offers a much longer tracking range.

I was under the impression that an AirTag when separated from the owner's device, would notify nearby iPhones if the AirTag continues to remain around a stranger's iPhone to prevent unauthorized tracking. So for example, I leave an AirTag in an Uber, the driver's iPhone would notify them that there's an unauthorized AirTag 'tagging' along with them. Is that not the case?

No. You can’t find your dog or kid unless they are basically in the same room. It has no usable range. If your dog even leaves your yard, you’re screwed pretty quick. Someone steals your purse...? By the time you react the thief could be out of range. Lost mode is entirely dependent on having other Apple users - who FIND your item and then want to help you. Very disappointed.

I'm really interested to using this to track my pet tbh. (I've recently lost one of my dogs simply cause it ran out of house and never got back home and until now I am still worried) But the potential problem is, I have more than one dogs, and I'm not surprised if they damage the collar (and then potentially the airbag.. or even swallow it) down the line when they're playing together etc.

Are you sure that there is no possibility that an AirTag cannot send its location without relying on Bluetooth and other iPhone devices? Without much relying on precision finding within the Bluetooth range, isn't it pointless to get one of these? For example, you live in the countryside with very few people who use iPhone devices? Some people don't take the precision finding a big deal, but the point is as least we would know its location on the map. Please, someone, clear these confusions.

Why can’t literally any company seem to be able to create a tracking device that actually tracks real time over long distances ?? I’ve heard of some very very expensive ones for dogs but people still say there’s a massive delay on the tracking feature and they end up just walking in circles trying to find their missing dog. It doesn’t seem like it should be this hard

So, you're advising against using it to track kids because Apple don't want to make any claims that it could be used for that? I can understand why Apple advise against it but I can't understand why you advise against it. It's definitely better than nothing if your child gets lost.

I don't know why people would assume that an air tag would be anti theft device. It's clearly not. However, if placed in a pocket of a bag, or a purse, and the thief didn't know it was there, then more power to you. Living in a suburban area with a dog, and air tag on their collar may not be a bad idea.
