But why? It would make no difference because tile is also on the find my network. So it doesn’t matter if it’s a tile or an airtag, every iPhone would report the same thing. But I would rather have an airtag than a tile because airtags can play sound, it can be found within centimeters of the iPhone for my iPhone 12 and I can change the battery. Not sure if a new tile allows you to change the battery but the old ones did not creating waste.

The speaker in airtags can be easily removed so could be used to track anyone and an iPhone notification to the guy being tracked is the only thing stopping this. Most would probably think it’s nothing or ignore it. It could be under their car or hidden for ages.

I live in Florida. I bought an airtag and was having issues. So, I exchanged it for another. A few days later Apple called. They were trying to diagnose the issues. I had not removed it from my account. The call was a request for specifics on my issue (my phone would not track it beyond 5 feet).

One way to improve this test: Have someone at the destination log in with your Apple ID and “locate” the airtag. Instead of just open the box.. maybe ship it to a UPS store or something like that so you need to seek it out.

I wanted to try something similar, and bagged up an airtag to send to the UK, but had to complete a customs declaration and one of the questions was does the package contain an electronic device with a lithium battery, which it does, so I decided not to send it. Did I do the right thing?

[@nietmijnechtenaam2477]

How is the battery life?

[@LearningandTechnology]

Fun video! I did a similar experiment by putting an airtag into a log and seeing how far it would float down the river by my house. My results were far less interesting than yours. What I’ve discovered is that an iPhone or iPad must be near the airtag for some period of time before it pings. This makes sense - you wouldn’t want the network overwhelmed by having dozens of devices pinging when they are just driving or walking by. So in the case of my river trip - it’s not “phoning home” very much - just a couple of pings over 3 days.
