cool update! wish they developed a method that lets you track your airpods case and not just the airpods themselves. because I've lost my case before and it was stressful trying to find it.
Just put an AirTag on ur AirPods case, that's what I do
I think the AirPods 3 and AirPods Pro have that feature
@@daniyalkhizar Nope, unfortunately, I did not find a solution to track my Airpods Pro without the AirTag
Either way, you can just buy a new case if there is no choice. Apple sells a wireless charging case in case you lost the case or switching to wireless.
Yeah I lost mine but found it
My story was I got the notification at 4:19am. I was freaking out because I just moved house and all my belongs were touched by the moving company. I can’t imagine if someone drop this little tag in one of my boxes and track my location all the time. So I got up immediately, and kept tap play sound, after trying a thousand times, finally I found where the sound came from - it came from a cat outside my window 😂
Lmao I’d be so mad 💀
that cat was probably so freaked out from the sound 💀😭
‘Tracking Notifications’ and the icon for this option used in this video are no where to be found in settings. Why use this term and icon if neither are representative of what’s available to the user?
I just got this notification and I don't recall using any air tags
Little worried as i dont have one and after tapping play sound it keeps telling me to move around
Same here don’t know what to do
@@JayJudah2k same. Im freaking out.
I have this notification for “tracking alert” it says “AirPod Traveling With You” but the play sound buttons are greyed out. Help me?
Thanks for reaching out! See apple.co/3u3zwoQ for what to do if you get an alert that an AirTag, Find My network accessory, or set of AirPods is with you.
If you have further questions, please use apple.co/GetSupport for assistance.
where can I find this option, I only have a route plan, no history of where he went!😢
So I can only see an AirTag if my phone notifies me of it? How stupid! Why can’t I scan an area to see if one is present?
Great, now the bike thief knows that there’s a tracker on the bike and can locate and disable it. Nice feature
Unfortunately that’s not the use case for an AirTag. I wish they didn’t add this feature because I also use one to track my trailer with a lot of tools in it. But they had too many complaints about people who were tracked without them knowing
What if you don’t receive a notification? How do you find an AirTag placed on you when you have not been notified?
We assure you we're always happy to help. If you don't have an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, an AirTag that isn't with its owner for a period of time will emit a sound when it's moved. You can then use the steps under section, ‘If you hear an AirTag emitting a sound’ - s.apple.com/dm3l4d4i6v
If you have additional questions, feel free to reach out here apple.co/GetSupport
I wish people would stop stalking with AirTag because Apple's reputation with their AirTags
Good morning ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ 0:41
i tap “play sound” and it says “AirTag not reachable, im positive its somewhere in my car, how do i i make it reachable?
Hi and thanks for your message! Let's see what we can do about this issue. This article explains how to mark an AirTag as lost in Find My on iPhone: s.apple.com/dm3i1n9i8K

How do you find the notification again once it’s been closed?
We can help! If you’ve received one of these notifications, you can open the Find My app to learn more about where they were observed with you. You’ll learn more about it here: s.apple.com/dm4x4d5i4u

Very helpful.
So you cannot track your stolen car anymore with airtags, the car thief will know. Amazing.
Great video
The “AirTag seen moving with you” message disappeared and now i can’t get it back to try to play the sound on the AirTag. How can I get it back?? I want to find this thing
Hi there. If an AirTag is detected moving with you again, you will receive the alert again according to: s.apple.com/dm4x4d5i4u
Have additional questions? Contact Apple Support here: apple.co/GetSupport
@@applesupport ok, do you know how long that will take? It’s still INSIDE or ON my car somewhere.
also, the AirTag didn’t play any sort of chime when I hit the button for it to “play sound”. What can I do about that?
What if you can’t hear it
If you are having issues hearing the Find My Device notification for your AirTag, contact us here: apple.co/GetSupport
This is the best way to get support.
the play sound isn’t working..
Thanks for your question! See apple.co/3u3zwoQ for more information if an AirTag is moving with you.

My AirTag is unknown
Hello from Ukraine 🇺🇦
Excuse me, sorry if bothered. Could you add Ukrainian language to the "translation"? I would be very happy and grateful for such a service, like all Ukrainians!
I will wait for at least some feedback!
Thank you!

Every American should be suing Apple into bankruptcy because of airtags. If you don't have an iPhone to discover airtags violating your privacy and your safety you need to sue Apple into bankruptcy.
This make it a useless product.
First
Although this is important for privacy reasons, it kind of kills the ability to locate something someone has stolen from you if the thief learns to scans for AirTags after stealing it.
maybe use other tracker instead only using airtag
Better that then having someone easily follow you with an AirTag, considering that a thief could already just search for AirTag and throw them away
AirTags are more suited for tracking lost items, rather than stolen
That’s good point
because AirTags aren’t supposed to help you find stolen items, only lost ones
So if the a certain thing with airtag you stole, you can deactivate it so owner cant locate it. Kinda off.
my girlfriend got a notification that an unknown airtag is moving w her and her phone wouldn't connect in order for us to locate and play the sound. this seems like a big safety hazard, as anyone can attach an airtag to your car or belongings and track you.
I'm having the same exact issue here
Hello! We’ll be glad to assist you with your concerns.
This article will provide more details about what you’re experiencing with the AirTag: s.apple.com/dm4x4d5i4u
If you need more help, please contact us here: apple.co/GetSupport
Me 3
Just happens today
i feel like a good feature is to be able to reset the airtag that has been tracking you so they cant track you anymore and u get a free airtag that u can use
People can easily stalk you without an AirTag, should get rid of the notification feature and let us use it for tracking stolen items without alerting the thief.
What if a parent places an AirTag in the pocket or the backpack of a child, who then gets abducted? Wouldn't that alert the kidnapper that they are being tracked, if they have an iPhone? Or if you place an AirTag in your car, and it gets stolen? Will it alert the thief?
What if you attach an airtag to your bag and someone steals your bag. Then cant they just disable its tracking so you wont be able to locate your bag?
We’d be happy to get your questions answered. The Apple ID account holder where the AirTag is associated with is the one who can remove it from Find My. For more information, please check this out: s.apple.com/dm4z9T9H7c
If you have any questions, please reach out to Apple Support here: apple.co/GetSupport
@@applesupport that doesn't answer the user's question
It's meant for lost items not stolen items..
Dang I bought an airtag to hide in my car/bike/luggage in the event it ever gets stolen. Guess that's useless. These only help if it's lost. :/ Wish I had seen this video before purchasing haha
I put an air tag in my car, it’s really stupid to find that someone else can locate my hidden air tag and can disable it or throw it away. Apple use your brain, use this feature with other products not airtags
SOOOO IF SOMEONE ROB MY BIKE AND THE PERSON WHO DO THAT YOU TELLING ME THAT HE CAN DISABLE MY OPORTUNITY TO FIND HIM!? WTF ITS THAT APPLE? SO WHATS THE POINT TO BUY THAT?
AirTags are not designed to track stolen things. Unfortunately! I wish there would be an option to get notified when the AirTag is moving
I accidentally clicked off the airtag instructions and i cant open it again and find the notification for it
Same 😢 what should we do
I think it takes hours to notify someone so using this in your car if it gets stolen can buy you some time since you can hide it good and they wont get notified for a while, could get stalked too but i think more people will use it for stolen things
Useless if you cannot physically find the AirTag- you cannot disable it. Stalkers/car thieves can easily disable the speaker (there’s UA-cam’s on this as well). The Bluetooth frequency also changes so if you get the alert at 2am and don’t see it until the morning, it will not allow you to play the sound.
There is one on my vehicle somewhere and Apple refused to help locate it after confirming it was not a glitch.
Mustn’t compromise the privacy of the owner of the air tag that’s using it illegally, eh?
Thank you for reaching out. If you are unable to locate an AirTag that you are being alerted about using the steps provided in this article: s.apple.com/dm4x4d5i4u and you feel your safety is at risk, please contact your local law enforcement.
If you have additional questions, reach out to us here: apple.co/GetSupport
@@applesupport This is kind of ridiculous. I haven’t done anything and now I get a random AirTag and the solution is to contact law enforcement?? What even is this as far as a fix. There’s got to be a better solution to this.
@@nomadred5847Did you find out anything? Someone is tracking me and I have no idea who or were they are.
This isn’t about the AirTag as much as it’s about you turning and leaving on your location settings. 🤦
This should include more detailed information on making the required settings. For example, is Time-Sensitive-Notfication setting required (it's not default)
Someone is tracking me with an AirTag, and how do I disable it? Also I DO NOT own the AirTag, so PLEASE I need help
Hey there, we’d like to help! We recommend reviewing the following support article, as it has steps you can take to prevent unwanted tracking, including what to if you see an alert about an unknown AirTag moving with you: s.apple.com/dm4x4d5i4u
If you need any help with these steps, feel free to reach out to us directly: apple.co/GetSupport
Me too
why wont apple think of actually disabling it through the app or are they not caring about privacy?
I wanted to get one but I heard these things notifies the whole world that there's an AirTag nearby.. no thanks. I don't want people to know I have an AirTag in my backpack. Apple needs to be clear about how it notifies people about the Unknown AirTag alert. Under what circumstances does it trigger the notification?
Thank you for reaching out about how AirTags work. If any AirTag is separated from its owner and is seen moving with you over time, will notify that individual. You can see more information about how it works at: s.apple.com/dm3l4d4i6v

I just found an unknown AirTag following me in the rental car that I rented today. I click locate the AirTag but it wouldn’t make a sound. The thief must have some way to disable the sound!
We’d love to help! Please reach out to us for assistance here: apple.co/GetSupport
Hi,
I'm hoping you can help. There are a lot of vehicle thefts in our area recently. We just moved a few days ago, and our new home is still in the same general area - just a few minutes away from our last home. Yesterday, I received a notification saying "AirTag found moving with you. The owner of this item can see its location...". I clicked the notification and the details said "First seen with you today at 9:25am". I was home all morning, so that time was odd. I tried the play sound option, but it wouldn't play anything, I believe it said I had to move my phone closer. I searched both our vehicles, but wasn't able to find an AirTag (though I could be missing a spot, as there are so many places it could be hidden). On the find my app, it showed 3 solid lines and 3 dotted lines going to and from my new home and my old home, with the AirTag icon - I took screenshots, and glad I did because later in the evening (and I don't know why this happens every now and then with some notifications, but) all the notifications of the AirTag near me vanished - it wasn't in the drop down notification center, and nothing in the find my app. Vanished like it never happened. Are you able to help me find out for sure if I'm being tracked? I'm wondering if it's in one of our vehicles, as I went back and forth the day prior to move stuff between homes. Thanks in advance.

Air tag needs a different sound options. I could tell what room it was and still couldn’t find the damn thing! The echo sound isn’t for me.
Ok so now thief with iPhones can steal your backup then they can disable the AirTags
That is a brilliant idea
My guess is that most thieves know this already.
How about when a person was using Android? How can they know if there's an AirTag moving with them?
That’s a fantastic question and you’ve come to a great place for help! If you’re using an Android device, you can download the Tracker Detect app to find an AirTag or Find My network accessory that’s separated from its owner. You can download that app and find more information about what to do here: s.apple.com/dm3l4d4i6v
You’ll also hear a sound emitting from the AirTag, after it’s been separated from the owner for a period of time. If you have additional questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us here: apple.co/GetSupport
I literally just got a notification of one. I own zero. I don’t know how long it’s been on. It can track where you are, where you live. Any degenerate can break into my house, steal any of my belongings, hurt my children just because they feel like doing something awful. The fact they did it at all tells me that their intentions are underhanded. And should anything happen I will not hesitate to Sue apple because at no point did I give them permission to allow a stranger to keep up with the whereabouts of me or anything pertaining to my person.
😂😂😂😂 good luck suing apple. You think they have not thought everything through legally?! if someone puts a tracker on you it’s not their faul…that’s like suing Ford because someone did run your dog over in a F150 😂
@@p__jay so then everyone walk away from Apple products, but good luck with that humanity is pathetic worthless joke not with worthy of saving and needs destroying asap we need Thanos more than ever
When I launch the Preferences app and type "Tracking" into the search field, Tracking Notifications don't show up. I have countless other examples, this search field can't find anything. iOS 15.5.

So if someone stole my baby’s stroller, they can disable the airtag that’s hooked onto it with a combo lock? Great. That’s just great. That goes the same with bikes. Or if lost mode is turned on, is it not possible to be disabled? but then that means stalkers can stalk forever. what a world we live in.
lol i don’t think “lost mode” can prevent you from disabling it, taking the battery out is nothing electronic
@@Zellzoi you just said the same thing twice…
What if I can’t locate the air tag tho !!!!!!!!
Had an issue with this last night.Why would you design something like this ?
It’s useful for finding your keys.
Crazy world in which we live.
I got this but I have NO IDEA where it can be and I cannot connect to it. What is happening?

When I'm driving with my AirTags (attached to my AirPods 2 case) in my pocket I get an alert on my iPhone that I'm being tracked and it lists the last 4 digits of my own phone number. What am I doing wrong?
We’re happy to help. If your AirTag does not appear in your Find My, it may be necessary to reset and re-pair the AirTag. You can learn how to reset it here: s.apple.com/dm4n9d9z7N
Otherwise, please use apple.co/GetSupport to connect with our teams to explore this behavior further.
There should really be a notification for Android phones.
When I look in 'settings' I see no 'locations services' as you claim here. 0:09 Be more clear on what is in 'settings' and where please. This is deficient.
You can turn bluetooth on and off just under wi-fi in settings...and location services is under 'privacy' in settings. But thanks for your question because it made me realize I missed that detail and had bluetooth etc. turned off.
May I ask if they can also use the precision finding for unknown iphone?
Great question. It is the case that Precision Finding is a feature only for AirTags. Find My features for the iPhone include Find My Network and Send Last Location. Learn more here s.apple.com/dE4l2p6d1n

I lost the notification, is there a way I can get it back so I can find the AirTag??? I saw 5 around my house and I can’t find them anywhere
We are happy to help.
Take a look at the notification information regarding AirTags, and how to handle them, that is outlined here: s.apple.com/dm4x4d5i4u
For additional help, reach out to Apple Support: apple.co/GetSupport
Many people don't always have location and Bluetooth turned on, so this won't alert everyone.
How do you make sure that a potential thief isn’t getting notified? Like having one on a bike and the bike gets stolen
I found someone’s case . How do I contact the owner to return it? I keep receiving a notification in my phone that the object was detected but there’s no action to actually contact who lost it… can you help? Thank you!
We appreciate wanting to get that item back to the owner. The best step is to turn it in to local law enforcement, this way when the owner is looking for the device and receives the same suggestion they can be reunited.

There’s no point of the Apple AirTag because if somebody steal something then they’ll know they’re being tracked so they look for the AirTag😑
So stupid.. If my items gets stolen the thief can just stop the tag from been tracked! 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
This is stupid. Why do I have to locate the AirTag? Why couldn’t I just disable it/disconnect it from my phone?
I bought one and have been testing it. Gave it to my mom, and she was alerted of it after like 30 minutes... This makes it useless, because when an item is stolen, 30 minutes is not enough sometimes to know it disappeared, so the thief would know waaaay long before me that he's been tracked. Was going to buy 4 more, but this makes them useless, I'm better off putting an used iPhone on my car or backpack to track it than this.
I kind of feel like this, just ruined part of the usefulness of an AirTag. I mean, if somebody steals my car for example I don’t want them to be able to disable the AirTag that I have hidden in it.
So incredibly annoying. I have a private and a work iPhone. I get constant alerts on my work phone related to my key’s with AirTag, earphones etc. Now, I can only pause this mayhem for a day?
This doesn’t work. I’m dog sitting a dog that has a tag in case it runs off. Not activating ANY alerts for me
Okay, so I don't own a Iphone. Yet can be stalked. Especially cause I don't have a iphone. Gotta love you apple!
Hello Apakabar, semoga harimu selalu berkenan, Terimakasih atas kerjasamanya. Semoga bermanfaat bagi kita semua Thank You,,
Bruh. Everyone saying this is trash. This is so that people can’t plant an AirTag in your car and then track you home.
I wish the sound on AirTags was much louder.

I get this notification constantly but it is my AirTag but it will not let me add it. I had it on an old purse and deleted and now I can’t add it to the new purse
The last time I saw my AirTag location was last seen on May 26, 2022. Today is May 31, when I check where is my AirTag it shows me the location of last seen May 13, 2022 Unbelievable!
Why Last Seen went back to May 13 it doesn’t stay on last seen of May 26, 2022?
A lot of theft rings put air tags on cars they intend to steal. They use the tracking data to monitor where the vehicle is to pick out when to steal it.
This is a very good feature to defend against car theft.
So if I was to place this on a car to rob it and the driver has android he would never know? Perfect 👍
there is an Android app to do just that. Check out the reply from Apple Support a few posts down.
I wanted to keep it on my bike to avoid theft, but it seems apple made this for people who just forget things around.
Yeah, I don't use an iPhone,now what?
What do you do if you know there’s an AirTag in say…. Your car for example… but you haven’t gotten a notification for it… jealous wife scenario

That’s kinda messed up cause I have hidden Air Tags in my vehicles so I can track my cars. So if anyone steals my car and they just so happen to have an iPhone with them they can find my Air Tags and disable them 🤔🤔
What if I have an Android phone can I get that App
