If you’re an Apple user, this is the most convenient way to keep track of something. Setting it up is incredibly easy, especially for those familiar with Apple devices. Even those who aren’t will find it straightforward to follow the instructions.

Purchase these for a cross country move added them to my U boxes as a recommendation from my cousin when she moved across country. Kept an eye on my belongings and I knew where they were every step of the way all the way down from Iowa to Florida.

After losing my keys so so many times, mu children convince me to buy these AirTags. And yes, I lost my keys again this past Thursday, but with the AirTags, I was able to locate my keys in no time. Also, I have the tendency to place my phone down and forget where I last had the phone. If my volume is turned down, it is a problem. But now that I have placed an AirTag on the phone, it too is easy to locate.

I travel by air on a regular basis and I’ve become concerned about airlines losing my luggage. I decided that an AirTag was necessary so I purchased one to see if it would give me some peace of mind. Syncing the tag with my iPhone is as easy as pulling a plastic tab out of the device. It was ready to go in seconds. I love being able to see where my bag is from the moment I check it to the moment it comes out at baggage claim. I can’t imagine checking a bag without an AirTag.

Bought for my luggage during an overseas trip. Didn't lose my luggage, but if I had, this would have been what saved it. Friends recommended it for this purpose due to what has happened to them previously. Recommend it to travelers with checked bags.

We have Apple AirTags for several items that we own. These trackers are very easy to set up and the battery life is quite long. We even added AirTags to our luggage so that we can check to see if our checked bags have made it onto our plane and whether they are to headed to Baggage Claim once we arrive at our destination. These can be used to keep track of many different kinds of items.

Its a fantastic way to keep track of your things if you have an Apple device or devices. Its small enough to fit in discreet areas of a bag or other high value item without adding weight or needing to use some glue sticker to attach it.
I have two main gripes with this:
1) Connection refresh is SLOW. The frequency at which AirTags ping location is....well....infrequent. Obviously it matters how many Apple devices are nearby, but you will see from several Youtube testing videos that a location ping can take anywhere from 3 minutes all the way to 15!!! 15 minutes is a long time for a thief to take your device somewhere, look for and find an airtag, ditch it, and take the valuable. Battery life is estimated at 12 months. I would happily sacrifice 3 months of battery life if it meant AirTags pinged location immediately at the press of a button in the FindMy app or at least a steady every 5 minutes.
2) Form factor requires that you buy accessories to be able to attach to anything that doesnt already have a pocket. Tile has a handy keyring hole on most of its products. This allows you to attach it quickly and easily to something that doesnt have a secure pocket, like your keys. Because this is just a round disc, you HAVE to buy extra accessories to be able to attach it to something. Apple just cant help their corporate greed.
The last gripe I have is the inability to share location of an Airtag with a family member. But I understand that is being changed in iOS17. Thank goodness, because that was also a huge problem. If you put an AirTag in a family luggage, having only one person be able to use the FindMy was completely impractical. What if that person has to go get the rental car across the street while the other person gets the bags? Well too bad. Thats just one example I thought of but the point stays. This was a real limiting issue of the usability of these AirTags but now that its being addressed in iOS17, Im really looking forward to being able to share locations with family members or trusted friends when necessary.
Overall, despite my gripes, this works fantastically well when you need it to find that thing in your house or if you left a bag at school or something. So long as you didnt lose something out in an empty field (with no apple devices for it to ping off of), this is a must have for Apple users security and peace of mind.
If Apple releases a gen 2 with better location refresh/ping coupled with the iOS17 update, I will definitely be buying more of those.

I am thoroughly impressed with this product. I have bought other tracking devices. The apple air tag is a superior product. It is easy to setup and tracks your personal belongings quite well. I am highly recommending this product.

Very easy to connect and share with others. I’ve bought these for my husband and I plus our adult children to use when traveling. When my daughter was traveling internationally, the airline failed to get her luggage on to connecting flight. Luckily, she was able to follow her luggage with the AirTags and collect It at the airport when the luggage finally arrived. I recommend everyone use these when traveling!

Easy to setup and use and it synchronizes seamlessly with your Apple ecosystem of products. I hid one in my car in case it ever gets stolen or if I forgot where I parked. It's a cheap, great workaround for putting a GPS on your vehicle. No complaints about it!
