Apple AirTag | Best key finder for the iPhone

Apple AirTag for iPhone

Your AirTag gives out a secured Bluetooth signal which can be traced by the devices nearby in the Find My network. These devices then send the location of the AirTag to iCloud, allowing you to now see it through your Find My app. The whole process is incognito and encrypted to protect your privacy. Moreover, it’s efficient so forget worrying about the battery drain or data usuage.

Walkthrough over its readiness

Losing track of something such as your wallet does not have to be a major hustle when it has one of these Apple AirTags attached. You can play a sound on the built-in speaker by going to the new Items tab in the Find My app, or say “Hey Siri, find my wallet.” If it’s hiding nearby — like under the couch or in the next room — just follow the sound and your search is over.

New Precision-Finding feature

If your AirTag is nearby, your iPhone can lead you straight to it with Precision Finding. You‘ll see the distance to your AirTag and the direction to head in — all thanks to Ultra Wideband technology. Searching for your essentials finally got easier.

Precision Finding feature is compatible with;

  • iPhone 11
  • iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max
  • iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini
  • iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max

Last Mode

As like your other apple devices AirTag can be put into lost mode. Then when a device in the network detects it, you’ll receive a notification automatically. You can also set it on so that someone can get your contact info by tapping your AirTag with an NFC-capable smartphone. Which is the same technology that let people pay for things through their phones.

Privacy Update

Only you can see, where your is AirTag? Your location data and history are never stored on the AirTag itself. Devices that transmit the location of your AirTag also stay anonymous, and that location data is encrypted every step of the way. So not even Apple knows the location of your AirTag or the identity of the device that helps find it.

AirTag is designed to discourage unwanted tracking. If someone else’s AirTag finds its way into your stuff, your iPhone will notice it’s traveling with you and send you an alert. After a while, if you still haven’t found it, the AirTag will start playing a sound to let you know it’s there. Of course, if you happen to be with a friend who has an AirTag, or on a train with a whole bunch of people with AirTag, don’t worry. These alerts are triggered only when an AirTag is separated from its owner.

The Simplicity

A one-tap setup instantly connects your AirTag with your iPhone or iPad. Enter a name for your AirTag, attach it to the item you want to track, and youʼre good to go. Want AirTag notifications on your Apple Watch, too? No problem.

[i2pc show_title=”false” title=”Pros & Cons” show_button=”false” pros_title=”Pros” cons_title=”Cons” ][i2pros]No weight issues what-so-ever. There will be no problems with this on keys, bags, etc.
A simple compact design that doesn’t draw attention.
Setup took seconds to get ready as the software is already on the current IOS.
Waterproof with an IP67 rating. This means it can take the rain or even if it’s dropped in a deep puddle. Overall, it can hold against Mother Nature.
Battery replacement is quick and painless.
[/i2pros][i2cons]The Airtag will scratch and you will need to accept it. My only advice is to stick with the white color because that will hide some of the worse scratches (except in the middle).
It’s small enough to put it on a keychain but sadly too large/bulky to put it inside your wallet.
The accessories cost with this can almost equal what you paid the Airtag itself, even more.
If you have an Android this will not work. As mentioned, you’re able to scan an Airtag to discover the contact info, but that’s it.
