AirTags - 20 Things You NEED to KNOW!

I’ve never won anything in my life and I’m old!! 😂 xx

[@JifferRiffic]

Man I don’t have any social media but KZbin. I’ll never win. Also apple does know at all times where your air tag is at. While they might not track the air tag per say they do track the phone and other devices using connected to Bluetooth. So basically anytime the air tag connects to a device apple gets pinged revealing the location. This will be proven when OTA updates happen. Don’t be fooled.

[@TipppedScales1015]

The replacement idea is cool but can get expensive if you’re constantly buying watch batteries lol they should’ve had a super long battery life along with a charger tbh.

[@javiazar]

Yeah cool, but that person will get a notification HOW if you have an Android phone? Everyone using Android is at risk of being tracked by coworkers and classmates. 3 days isn't longer than a weekend

[@timothylinn]

The most disappointing aspect of the AirTag's design is the fact that it is thief-friendly, particularly if the thief has an iPhone with them. Not only will the iPhone alert the thief to its presence, it will provide instructions on how to disable the AirTag. I would argue theft is a much larger problem than stalking.

[@abc-wv4in]

Unless it's you who is being stalked! Stalkers are dangerous. I understand your point, though. Apparently AirTags should be considered useful for lost items, not stolen ones.

[@Sartfla]

I agree

[@Sartfla]

@@abc-wv4in I'd rather be stalked then have something stolen from me. Saying stalkers are dangerous is stereotyping.

[@timothylinn]

@@Sartfla The problem I have with the stalking argument (beyond the fact that theft is the larger issue) is that AirTags don't make stalking possible. They just make it more convenient. Stalkers are going to stalk, AirTags or not. So let's not pretend that crippling AirTags somehow eliminates the problem.

[@Homerbub]

4:19 If the AirTags notifies the user they are being tracked and they can disable that, then AirTags can't be used for stolen goods.

[@Ozuma99]

Maybe if there are different “modes” to set the AirTag, this problem would be solved. Start beeping after 3 days of separation from your phone is a start but being able to set your own timing would be better.

[@jzuniga633]

Personally I think notifying the person they are moving with a tag is good enough. But have no ability to disable the tracking but disable the beeping sound. This solves both problems. The one who lost the tag has the ability to continue tracking the tag. The one with the tag is notified that he is with the tag. This give the person the choice to throw out the tag or contact the person.

[@RichardGetzPhotography]

@@jzuniga633 if my car alarm goes off, I don't want the person stealing it to be able to shut the sound off. Likewise with the AirTags.

[@jzuniga633]

[@thanetworknerd]

The accelerometer in Airtags is so just in case you lose an item, once the Airtag is being moved, it’ll also beep to alert people of its presence.

[@mrmidnight32]

Pretty sure the stalker feature is only issued when the original iPhone hasn’t been in contact with that tag in some time and is far from their area. I’m hoping it’s like a week or more. But if you have it near your iPhone you originally used on the tag frequently it doesn’t enter stalker mode. Exact distance or time away I’m unsure.

[@alexgreatfilm95]

I would use it for my airpods. Always constantly trying to find them

[@Wusyaname_]

Definitely using this on my EDC, which will have an iPad Pro in May. Tile just got murdered. Honestly, an underated product.

[@allan.n.7227]

The accelereometer is used to track if the tag is moving I guess .. ie for the moving alert

[@kenkwok83]

Accelerometer is needed for the anti stalking feature ?

[@martiivanov]

I believe the tags are not meant for theft battling in the first place. By looking at the design and the replaceable battery a thief would not bother at all to wait for the moving rage notification to disable it, they could in less than 5 seconds remove the battery and that would be it. Great video btw!

[@pmeister2462]

Ordered one for my keys for next Friday. I will give it a shot.

[@MrBearitall]

the accelerometer is used for height tracking or speed i assume. I saw that you can actually track it not only horizontally but vertically as well. So say your airtag is on top of the refrigerator, for some reason. the phone will tell you its right where you are, but its still 1.5ft away.

[@gospelaccordingtojohn8959]

I hope that at some point my phone can be notified if I leave the house without my wallet or vice versa. I’m constantly getting to the parking garage and realize I’ve left my phone or wallet up in my flat

[@susannestersdal-hole9043]

I think Tile has this feature.

[@Panache_]

So I can’t put one in a checked bag without it beeping and pinging others it is nearby? I would love to see if my bag is spotted at the wrong airport.

[@davo002]

Does Airtag or Tile need a subscription to track?

[@lusk8z]

The point of the airtags is to track Lost not Stolen items. The accessories are designed to be on the exteriors or on the handles of things for people to see deliberately so it can be returned. Not to mitigate theft Keys would be the classic thing to track @cluewithoutthee

The tag is to find lost items not to prevent theft or track stolen items. And sadly privacy and stalking is their higher concern in the precautions, because there is no way for a little disc to know this person is a thief track them, this is your spouse you can’t stalk them.

How would it track your dog? It will only show you the area your dog was in IF there was someone with an iphone nearby , and then your dog will likely have moved on anyway. Buy a Hermes dog lead for only $2,500 instead :)

[@ChristianMorsanutto]

I liked the video, very informative. One point that I wish to make between AirTag and Tile (I do own both items) is that Tile relies on a network of 30, 40 Million users while AirTag is well over 1 billion users in the US alone. The chances of a device being in the proximity of another Apple device are much greater than for the Tile products.

[@MikeVSMike]

So can older iphone models still use it - other than the precision finding function - normally??

[@mrfishy90]

Yeah you can

[@randyrosario2373]

Can android phones ping the location as well or only iphones will update where the location of the airtag is ?

[@gladiator3543]

Regarding the issue with moving tags on public transport, surely it will work just like any other lost and found item? When someone finds the tag after being pinged they can act on it.

[@pault477]

Why accelerometer? Fall sensing connected to your Apple Watch?

Can you track certain AirTag for example you are in the woods? with a rare possibility that there is no iPhone device it can communicate with. Can you still see its location on your phone? Please answer this.

Isn't the accelerometer for that purpose of unwanted tracking. Because that's how AirTag has that feature to detect if you're being tracked.

[@robertaultman1968]

Accelerometer is used to track if it’s moving. How fast etc

[@alasdaircarmichael8962]

The video says that the air tag only activates when it is “not near you” but there is no indication of what “near” means. It cannot be used in his bike as that is not in the flat so presumably it can only be used for items that are normally within your vicinity. Eg. you cannot put one in your suitcase before it goes on an airplane so that you can track it when the airline sends it to Brazil instead of Italy or have I missed something?

[@drajeev123]

When an airtag is separated from its owner for over 3 days and if it's then moved, it would chime to let the people around know of its presence. As u would understand that would require an accelerometer

[@Planeswalker-Pt]

They need to implement this feature on the AirPods. If you lose your AirPods in the case it is very hard to track them down because you can’t ping them in the case. I lost mine for a day and I only had one AirPod in it cause I was only using one. I left my case and one pod in it at work . But I couldn’t track it down cause it was showing I had one nearby at home. Being able to ping the case would be nice.

[@georgeso4364]

Apple should make an Airtag that senses iPhone Thieves approaching you and sends you a notification warning you that Thugs are nearby.

[@drjosephs347]

Since there is no GPS, the accelerometer helps determine whether the tag is moving or not. The notifications are managed differently depending on whether the tag is moving or not.

[@technickr]

Is it still right, that a thief w/ an iPhone 'll get a notification and is able to deactivate it? If so, airtags are dumb for stolen things, but still useful for lost things. But there is still a network of iphones around necessary

[@garrettcorona]

The extra sensors in the air tags are for tracking movements for AR/VR. Wait for WWDC. Parents say the airtags could be used for tracking your body for fitness applications.

I have two of these and the chirping alarm goes off automatically even when I’m not looking for these items why is that and how do I stop it?????

[@AndreaGrandi]

You CAN use it on your bike and it will NOT beep after 3 days. Why/how? Because that's what the accelerometer is for: the anti stalking feature only kicks in if the Airtag is separated from the owner AND moves with someone else. If you leave it with your bike and your bike doesn't move, it won't beep.
