Thinking ahead, I like it. ??
I just though ahead and purchased another 4-pack with our discount while I can. Shipping dates are now into middle-ish June. Screen Shot 2021-04-25 at 23.44.44.jpg

Now that I think more about it. If someone puts these in their luggage, are these things going to be beeping like crazy in an airplane while it thinks it's being used to anonymously track 100 strangers at 30,000 feet?
And beeping will make people will think there's a bomb in the luggage compartment ??

It's going to be hilarious and I can't wait to see SWAT police being called when this actually happens

Guitar case which I plan to travel with by plane. One on my actual girlfriend while I'm away. I have to find a place to hide it. Uh-oh! :)

I haven't bought any yet but thinking of adding to the car key and house keys (I keep these separate). I think it's worth buying a 4 pack but not sure where I'd use the other two just yet.

I ordered 1 and 1 keyring. I'll first try this out. If the test is conclusive, I'll get more (hubby's keys and wallet, and our two cats). Haven't yet figured out how that's supposed to work for pets though.

4 pack to play with here, but the following to start with:
My house keys
Partners house keys
Partners wallet
Partners car keys

If it seems to go ok, will get a 5th for my car keys. These typically only live in a foil lined case unless they are on me when I use the car, so might be wasted on me putting an airtag on them.

These would be so handy if you think your spouse is cheating. Just slip one into their car, or into the pocket of their purse they never use, etc.

Car keys mainly.. Wife lost hers two weeks ago. Could have used air tags then.. I opted for the four pack.

Depending upon how reliable and range worthy these devices are I’ll likely buy many more. I’ve tried a few devices to keep track of keys and so forth before but they turned out to be useless..

I would use one on my keychain and have a second one around for situational use (backpack, camera bag, luggag).

i imagine this to be extremely fun with lost luggag by plane companies when you can tell them were they put the bag long before they figured it out.

also considering putting one on my bike somewhere invisible In case it ever gets stolen. they are said to move stolen bikes far away ASAP after they got stolen. Could be interesting if it is of resonobal use for the police.

I would imagine that a device this precise in tracking knows that it is only on the same Plane as these people rather than on their pocket or backpack. Same as your Apple Watch dos not unlock your computer from 20 meters away.
