If you are looking for a tracker For your pet, keys, vehicle, or any other object that you can think of, the AIRTAG Apple is one of those devices that once you test you cannot stop using, especially due to characteristics such as its battery, or the one that does not need your own internet.
Today we are going to see everything you need so that you know the product to the fullest, if you still did not discover it, as well as the price and the way of buying and using it, since it may, once this article is finished, you want to have one.
What is an AirTag
Airtag is a Apple brand locator device that allows us Find it through the network Search Of all brand products, which prevents internet from needing, as it will connect to devices such as the iPhone they do, to send us the location at all times of it.
We can use it in a car, always knowing its position, or in a dog, for example, in case it escapes us. Similarly, such as keychain, in the wallet, or even in a bag. Once an Apple device approaches it, update the position and we can see it from our iPhone or Mac without Airtag itself having the Internet.
Main functions
We are going to review its main characteristics, which summarize this AIRTAG very well.
- Find your things with the mobile: If you have a recent iPhone, AirTag can tell you exactly where you are looking for. It will show you on the screen where to go, how far it is, and even vibrate the mobile when you are close. It is like having a compass that points directly to your keys, wallet or whatever.
- It helps you even if it is far: The most surprising thing is that, although Airtag has no internet or GPS, it can tell you where it is crossing with another iPhone. This works because it uses the network of millions of Apple devices around the world. So, if something is lost in another city or country, there are many possibilities that someone with an iPhone passes close and helps you locate it without realizing it.
- Lost mode: If something is lost with an AirTag on, you can mark it as “lost” from the iPhone app. If someone finds it, when your mobile approaches (even android), you will see a message with your contact data so you can return it.
- Thought to avoid scares: Apple also thought about security. If someone puts an AirTag in your backpack without you knowing, your iPhone will let you know. And if that Airtag continues with you and you don't have iPhone, the Airtag will start sounding to find it. This prevents them from using it to spy or follow someone.
- Battery that lasts a lot: You don't have to load it. Use a normal battery (like those of watches) that lasts more or less a year. When it runs out, you simply change it yourself, without complications.
