Man I don’t have any social media but TH-cam. 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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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!
How would it work at airports when you check your bag in. Will it notify those loading the bags? Will it beep until it detects my phone in range? So many questions. I need to know
Question do they ping or notify your phone when you go a a certain distance away from them.Example if you drop your keys would your phone let you know once you are a certain distance away.
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.
It’s cute at 8:35, that you say the tag will be more expensive than the whole bag whilst showing an Hermès Kelly bag.. when that bag alone cost $9,000 - 40,000.
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.
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
Daniel, the accelerometer in the AirTag is used for the Moving Alerts, when you put your AirTag in “Lost Mode” it will detect movements so that it can track using other devices the latest location... CHEERS!
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.
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.
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.
I am very excited! I am thinking about getting one for a few but I haven’t decided yet it might come in handy at some point but you never know. I will definitely consult with a family member who is an apple junkie just like me. The only thing I do not have apple related is a Mac computer but I am considering making my next computer an iMac. Hopefully Tile will join the find my network.
Imma AirTag my Cat. She loves to sneak on the neighbours oh man. I hope she doesnt one day push the neighbours off the table too 😬 IG handel: @syafiqahbisnu
I can’t think of anything less useful than airtags. OK - if you’re the kind of person who routinely can’t find your keys in your house, but if something is stolen the thief will simply remove it and discard.
My wife wants me to buy an AirTag because I suck about placing my keys in a regular place. She said, “$30 is a steal to never have to hear you say, ‘Have you seen my keys?”, again! Happy wife=happy life.
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.
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 :)
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?
Question: If you hide the airbag inside the seat tube of a titanium bike, do you think it can still broadcast a signal? Thanks in advance for your reply.
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.
Great information and I love your accent. I was researching this to TAG for my adorable Boston Terrier -Sir Winston Blu. I would also tag my husbands keys & wallet (he is always losing them) Thanks again for the information. Highly considering it, don't know if I will wait until APPLE improves the glitches. They're not cheap.
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.
Yeah. I totally agree, if someone takes my airtag connected stuff and gets a message saying it's there, then the airtag is basically useless. That stopped me making a purchase.
I’m a little late to Apple AirTags game, but aren’t all the concerns about stalking tracking issues, Weren’t these issues concerns also true with Tile? I’ve had Tiles since 2017, & never heard the stalking issue making the news.
So much better than the first two youtube videos I watched on AirTags which were just utterly annoying. Yours was clearly stated and didn't waste our time with useless nonsense. Thanks.
Switched from Tile to Airtags. Did not care for Tile and decided to try Apple. Going on cruise in Feb 2023 and will put the Airtag and worthy of the hype behind it. Thanks for info.
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
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.
We're giving away NOT 1, NOT 2, NOT 3, NOT 5, but 4 AirTags! Follow the rules in the description to enter! Good luck! 😊👏🏻
I’ve never won anything in my life and I’m old!! 😂 xx

To be honest I will use AirTags to track my cat when I left them outside and alway sneaking to neighbours house for an hour 😂😂
Then what?
@@eekns kill the traitor of course!
These will be perfect for finding your car in a crowded parking lot
So is the panic button
If you use Apple Maps it stores your car location
or google maps saves your location too
Or your girlfriends car when she doesnt answer the phone
@@Shaojeemy damn Lowkey.. just stick it under the seat 😂
Ordered one for my keys for next Friday. I will give it a shot.
Great content Daniel! Your videos are always enjoyable, informative, with clarity, keep up with the amazing work!👍😎
For the 2021 iPad 12.9” with M1 chip, will it offer full external monitor screen (16:9) or still the mirror only image on external monitor?
The accelereometer is used to track if the tag is moving I guess .. ie for the moving alert
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.
Definitely using this on my EDC, which will have an iPad Pro in May. Tile just got murdered. Honestly, an underated product.
Do you know if there will be a new entry level iPad this year? I,m planning to buy one. Thanks.
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.

I wish I could attach a tag to my trains of thought that aways vanish into thin air.
I would use it for my airpods. Always constantly trying to find them
Can you use this on say a dog harness ....ie if your on the coast and the dog decides to go into the undergrowth ????
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.
I would use air tags on my pets! We live in the forest- I love that apple is in the tracking game!!!
It’s cute at 8:35, that you say the tag will be more expensive than the whole bag whilst showing an Hermès Kelly bag.. when that bag alone cost $9,000 - 40,000.
Just buy some Airtags. It’ll be ok.

Accelerometer is needed for the anti stalking feature ?
I would like to try and track my umbrella. I always forget it somewhere and never find it 😅
Ted Mosby probably took it with him
@@nyehu09 hahaha yeah, probably
I would track my son, hiding the airtags inside his shoes!! 🤣
Is the accelerometer installed so that the air tag can detect a “tap” from someone looking to see who the tag belongs to?
Does it work for pets? I’m surprised not one video I’ve seen has mentioned finding your dog with airtag
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
I think Tile has this feature.
Being a guitarist , I wish I could airtag my pick 😅
Or... You can you it as a pick!
Daniel, the accelerometer in the AirTag is used for the Moving Alerts, when you put your AirTag in “Lost Mode” it will detect movements so that it can track using other devices the latest location... CHEERS!
Doesn’t tile have a max range to find your item too?
Is apples range unlimited?
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.
Maybe if there are different “modes” to set the AirTag, this problem would be solved.

@@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.
@@RichardGetzPhotography Thats completely different situation Sir. lol
I would track my mother. She is getting lost sometimes 😅
But what I understood from videos is that Apple is respecting people's privacy so I guess it won't be possible to track anyone...
@Yuvraj Poudyal and I am so naïve I believed that 🤦♀️
@@Val-yg2kn only if the old lady have a iPhone if I understood…but if she don’t ..no problem
does it has accuracy up to metres? bcos i always need to find my keys...
11:46 if you already bought the airtag, why would you switch to tile if they are added to the Find My Network?
I track my car, I can never remember where I parked!
That’s my plan
But your iphone automatically saves where you parked when you get out the car … im also gonna leave one in my car but its just incase its stolen
I will track my car keys. I travel for work all the time and have left them in hotels before.
Excellently presented as always, informative and to the point, however do I need one?
Does Airtag or Tile need a subscription to track?
From a PR perspective, its better for them to be useless in a theft situation versus being used for malicious tracking.
100%
It can’t be used maliciously
@@tomashenderson502 oh it can be used maliciously as long as the person you are tracking does not have an iphone.
@@RedPMD and how to track without iPhone location? You still need findmy network.
It isnot useless, not in theft situation to start with.
Definitely track my bags at the airport once i get to travelling again.
@southafrica.jpg
No lithium batteries allowed below the wing. Contact your airline!
@@BW-zb2pd like they’d know
I used it recently to track my luggage
@@BW-zb2pd lmao no one cares for that.
Can android phones ping the location as well or only iphones will update where the location of the airtag is ?
