Apple AirTag is our favorite Bluetooth tracker for iPhones, and now there’s a solid deal on a four-pack.
One of the great things about AirTags is that they are instantly integrated into the Apple ecosystem. It works with the Find My app on Apple devices, so you don’t need to download any additional software. Just pair it with your iPhone (a very simple process) and you’re good to go.
Thanks to the large number of iPhones in the wild, AirTags can tap into a vast network of connected devices. So if you misplace an AirTag attached item, all you have to do is have someone with an iPhone nearby and it will show up in My Tap. Also, once you’re about 1,200 feet away from the AirTag, you’ll likely get a left-behind alert to make sure you don’t accidentally leave something behind. (You can turn off these alerts for certain viewers and create exceptions for them in places like home and office.)
If you have an iPhone with an ultra-wide-band (UWB) chip—iPhone 11 or newer, but not SE models—it can point you in the right direction of the AirTag with directional arrows and a distance meter when you’re inside. 25 feet. It’s handy if you have trouble hearing the AirTag’s jingle (it has the quietest ring of any tracker we’ve tested) or if the disc is hidden from view.
AirTag is quite rugged thanks to its IP67 rating for water and dust resistance. It also has a replaceable battery, unlike some rival trackers.
The downside is that the voice call only lasts seven seconds when you press the play button, so you might miss it. There’s no built-in attachment point, so if you want to put an AirTag on your keys, for example, you’ll need to buy an accessory.
