AirTags out of stock at Amazon and Target
AirTags seem to be out of stock at Amazon and Target, but not Walmart or Apple. Wondering if there could be an update coming at the March event? Would seem like an aggressive update schedule if so. And not sure what they would update about it. -

Looking for Stick on Suggestions
Hello All! I am looking to mount an AirTag on an electric scooter somewhere out of sight. The catch is, I think the only way to attach it would be with an adhesive mount.

Question about AirTag and three-day beeping
I understand that an AirTag will beep in three days when away from its owner and moved. But what if there are no iDevices around? How does it know it’s been moved?

Is it possible to replace the AirTag cover?
In this case i am talking about the AirTag battery cover made out of metal/aluminium. I know that you can place a skin on it but how about replacing the entire battery cover with a different AirTag’s cover or a completely different cover with a similar locking mechanism and battery connector?- Izarul Adam
