Apple AirTag

I originally wrote about Tile back in 2014.  If you’re unfamiliar with Tile products, in sum, they are small Bluetooth-enabled devices you can attach to items like keys, wallets, purses — anything you can potentially lose.  Apple now has its very own version: introducing Apple AirTag!

According to Apple’s website, Apple AirTag is a “super-easy way to keep track of your stuff.”  Simply attach one to your keys, purse, backpack, and more.  Once it’s set up, you’ll be able to view it on the Find My app.

Additionally, you’ll be able to play a sound on the device’s built-in speaker by going to the new items tab in the Find My app.  You can also say, “Hey Siri, find my keys,” for example.  If the item is hiding nearby, just follow the sound and your search is over!

Here’s more about how it works:

“Your AirTag sends out a secure Bluetooth signal that can be detected by nearby devices in the Find My network. These devices send the location of your AirTag to iCloud — then you can go to the Find My app and see it on a map. The whole process is anonymous and encrypted to protect your privacy. And itʼs efficient, so thereʼs no need to worry about battery life or data usage.”
