One of the first things that you might want to do when you buy an iPhone is check whether or not it has an AirTag. There are two ways that you can do this. The first is by looking for the tiny square of a sticker that comes with each Apple product. However, this method can be time-consuming. Another option is to use eBay or Etsy. By using these websites, you can find AirTags that have been used by other people.
Apple’s product strategy is “only Apple”
Apple is a leading consumer electronics company that develops and sells a range of hardware and software products. It focuses on making the most of its unique technological innovations.
The company is known for its Mac computers, iPods, iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touch. Besides these products, it has also invested in the areas of biometrics, machine intelligence, artificial intelligence, virtual reality, healthcare technologies, and self-driving vehicles.
Apple is one of the most valuable technology corporations in the world. Forbes ranked the company as the world’s most valuable brand in 2020.
In the last 10 years, Apple has been aggressively expanding its experience domains. It started with iTunes, which opened a new market in digital music. The company continued to focus on developing original video content, as well as on its distribution strategy.
Misuse of AirTags is causing delays
Using AirTags for a stalking scheme is a bad idea. The technology is still new and can be exploited by miscreants. This is why Apple is going to tweak its tracking features.
For example, it will make its tracker a little bit louder. It will also change the tone sequence of its alerts. However, the company hasn’t told us exactly when these changes will take place.
Other changes include a more robust scanning feature. If you find an AirTag and suspect it has been used for malicious purposes, you can disable it. In the meantime, however, the best strategy is to write down its serial number and contact law enforcement.
Some people have found that AirTags can be useful, especially for finding lost items. They work with the Find My iPhone app.
Stalkers are finding AirTags on eBay and Etsy
Many of you are probably aware of the fact that Apple’s AirTag has been getting a lot of attention lately due to their use in stalking. They are supposed to be able to track things and notify the owner of their presence. However, these tracking devices are a gold mine for thieves and stalkers.
While there are many reasons why you should get an AirTag, you don’t want to be caught in the wrong hands. That’s why Apple has taken measures to ensure that these small devices are not misused.
First, Apple has created the “Find my” app, which is a searchable database of AirTags that can be found. The app will allow you to find the serial number of any lost AirTag. In addition, it will also give you an audible alert if you find a nearby AirTag.
Chipolo’s new product offers a better consumer experience
Chipolo is a startup company from Slovenia that develops devices for finding lost items. Its first product was launched on Kickstarter, where it received more than 200,000 backers.
Its hardware is built with Bluetooth technology, which connects to the Chipolo app to let customers track and locate items. The app can be downloaded for both Android and iOS. With the help of the app, you can mark an item as lost and receive a notification when it is found.
Since its inception, Chipolo has been used to help find more than 50,000 misplaced items per day. The company’s mission is to give every item the power to be found.
Chipolo’s current line of lost item tracking devices includes the Chipolo GO, Chipolo CLASSIC and Chipolo Plus. At CES, Chipolo will also debut two new products: the Chipolo Clip and Chipolo Sticker.
Changing the tone sequence to make unknown AirTags more easily findable
If you’re an iOS user, you’ll want to check out Apple’s latest firmware update for AirTags. It will improve tracking capabilities, increase the volume of alerts, and make finding an unaffiliated AirTag easier.
Apple will also be rolling out a series of other features over the next few months. One of these features will be a precision finding feature that will let users identify a mysterious AirTag in the vicinity.
The new feature will be available to iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch users. To use the technology, you’ll simply need to point your device towards the elusive object.
Another cool feature is the fact that Apple has built a dedicated Android app. This app is designed to find unaffiliated AirTags using an ultrawideband chip. In addition, it will warn you if your device is moving while your AirTag is nearby.
