It’s a small circular disc that features no adhesive padding or even a key ring hole. There is only one AirTag to pick from, and its design functionality is a bit limited. It’s something that Tile cannot match yet, as it doesn’t feature ultra-wideband. It also uses a range of other tech (ARKit, Bluetooth and sensors) to enable this feature. The newer iPhones listed above support this and can use it to see where the devices are, spatially. Precision Finding is made possible by Apple’s U1 Chip, which delivers ultra-wideband support. Distance away in feet and arrows on the screen will help guide you to the tracker, and it all updates in real time. Essentially, when you’re looking for an AirTag and you have a general idea of where it is, you can click Find in the app for the respective tag and get turn-by-turn directions to it. If you have an iPhone 11 or newer, you’ll get to use Precision Finding with AirTag. It’s a more extensive network over Tile’s, which is in the millions. Apple’s network is made up of all the iPhones, iPads, Macs and iPod Touches online - that total number is approaching a billion. And with standard tracking on a map, AirTags have tended to be more accurate than a Tile tracker. With Tile, you’ll need to open the Tile app, and it’s just a bit more clunky. It’s all built in to the point that you can even ask Siri where one is or create a shortcut to access it easily. Within the Find My app, you tap the Items tab to see all of your AirTags on a map and easily ping them. The experience is straightforward and intuitive. It’s the same way you’d track a Mac, Apple Watch, iPad or even AirPods. The whole experience lives within the Find My app, making it easy to see your AirTag and other devices that support Find My. You also don’t need to make an account since the tracker is tied directly to your Apple ID.
The setup happens in just under a minute, and no heavy lifting is required. It pays to go with AirTag if you have an iPhone.
