Everyone was ecstatic when Apple announced the AirTags last week. Apple's ecosystem of products interact and collaborate in a harmonious manner. The integration is smooth, and third-party apps that fit well with your iPhone are uncommon. Consumers saw a plethora of applications for the new AirTags. Keep track of your keys, luggage, children, pets, and other valuables. Someone has already attempted to use AirTags to monitor their checked luggage.
It didn't work at all. To say the least, it was not as planned. The customer expected to see real-time tracking of the AirTag as it passed through a series of conveyor belts. It's important to remember that Apple designed the Airtags to function as trackers for an entire year on a single battery. When the AirTag is set or moving at a slow pace, the monitoring will almost certainly work flawlessly.
Yes, the AirTags will receive additional functional/practical updates in the months ahead. Currently, a single CR2032 battery powers a single AirTag. Apple claims that the battery must last a year before it needs to be replaced. Many people are relieved that Apple chose a user-replaceable battery over a non-replaceable battery. So, if the battery dies, we can replace the battery but not the AirTag.
