Air Tags

[dennis in se pa]

I like Air Tags. Sort of like GPS for your stuff.

Is there an app to monitor them on the screen of my laptop and or phone without a monthly fee?

If you have a iPhone you just buy and AirTag and sync it up to your phone.

Same app as 'find my phone' , iPad, earbuds, etc.

You can get notification if it is 'not with you'.

It's all free.

Can they be attached to 10mm sockets?

We put one on our 9lbs cats collar. Works great. Doesn’t seem to bother the cat at all.

Will they work with my mind, I may be losing it.

We have one on the dog's collar. Also put one in cary-ons and luggage. Learned from my son-in-law, he was able to tell where his luggage was when flights were screwed up last Christmas.

Marry a German and you won't have to worry about Air Tags. "A place for everything, and everything in it's place".

Also, "The house doesn't lose anything, it's here somewhere". We keep a bowl by the stairs for car keys and phones. Right when I get home all gets deposited there.

I have seen a few stories lately with people tracking stolen luggage with Air Tags. I might buy some for when I travel and my tool bag and computer bag at work.

Could I put them on an ex-girlfriends car to know where she is at all times? Asking for a friend.

But seriously, does anyone else's wife use Find My Friends far too often and call you when you're not where she expects you to be? I have to remember to turn it off when gift shopping!

Sounds like Air tags are being hidden on cars, and the thieves track your daily activities. Steal your car when they know you probably won't see it for hours. Then they hit your house when you are most likely to not be home.

Someone at work had someone following him around. He found an Air Tag hidden on his car with a scanner.

I’m sure that air tag scanners will be the next big thing.

Apple phones already have a warning when you are being tracked by an AirTag....

If you steal a car with an Airtag, you will get a warning. The question becomes how fast they can find it, and if they can keep the car away from iPhones while they look.

Right, if you have an iPhone and someone sticks an airtag on your car, in your bag, etc..., then your phone will warn you. If you have an android, you can download an app so that your android will warn you as well.
