Can You Track Your CAR with AirTag!?
Ғылым және технология
One of the most common questions I've been asked regarding Apple AirTags is whether or not you can track your car or truck with them. While it is totally possible, there are a lot of caveats you should be aware of.

My new car wont come with connected services so I am def. doing this with an airtag LOL.
2 things to note: 1) My understanding is in lost mode, airtags ping every 15 minutes to conserve battery. So there’s a limit to how quick it can be found, regardless of how populated the area is. 2) My understanding is that one common tactic when a car is stolen, is that the thief may park the stolen car somewhere for a day or two, to make sure the car isn’t “hot”. And in those cases, an airtag could possibly help. Also, good video :)

The downside of this is that your Air Tag will alert the Thiefs iPhone that there is an AirTag in the car with them. As its not the Thiefs AirTag his phone would get a ping saying something along the lines of "Non-user owned AirTag is in your close proximity" etc. It's a security feature to help people know if they are being stalked unsuspectingly.

I would say that if someone stole your car and you hid your airtag well enough, they would have no idea where to look for it! Also as they are driving down the road, they will pass someone who had an iphone so depending on the range of other iphones connecting to it, just as long as you are in a populated area then it would work great as an anti theft device!

Guys. I got a 4 pack of air tags for Christmas, had no idea what to do with them. I put one in my back pack, one in my wife’s purse , one in my truck hidden under the center console carpet (you know , just in case anyone ever stole my truck 😅) I figured why not? Fast fwd 2 months …. Woke up one morning my truck was gone. Tracked this guy who stole it!! Only down side was I was about 10 min behind him , hauling ass around town to all the “pings” where locations were last seen, finally…. After 4 hours he was not moving for about 10 min . Found him at his house!! My truck was parked behind his home in a dirt alley way ! had already filed a police report prior, called police and got my truck back! To me , it’s SO worth having in your vehicle. hide it good. It worked! I have had this truck for 11 years. 2004 LLY duramax. My baby, was home.

Good video. Answered my what-if questions. Thanks.
Thank you!
Question or consideration: if you place your itag in lost mode your own phone pings and set its location when you get out of your car, not?
is there way to record the movement of the airtag? ie, when it make moves, then it keeps record. rather than just show the current location, and doesn't show any history of previous locations.
wait so... it doesnt work like a phone would in find my? cause when I lost my phone i was able to sign into find my and saw that I let it at my friends house. Airtags wont show you where they are like that unless youre close?
Not sure I agree with your position that 10 minutes is a long time to find your hard. I’ve had several experiences where I spent more than an hour looking for my car. If I could find it in 10 minutes, I’d be super happy.
I tried the link and when I apply code its not working.
I don’t think an iPhone needs to be on 14.5 for a passerby to send the location of the airtag to the find my network. Yes 14.5 is required to use the airtag with the find my app and set it up. I have an airtag in my car and it’s also not necessary to put it in lost mode as it still will update the location when an iPhone comes in range and you can enable notifications when it’s not in lost mode but you have to enable notifications again after you get a notification. I park my car on the street in my neighborhood and it’s nice to know where my car is if I forget which street I park it on. I do have a garage but the garage is closed for several months for repairs so I mainly will use it for remembering where I parked. It updates really like every 5 to 10 min After midnight not as much.
I May be missing something, but it seems like if someone stole your car, you may not find it within minutes, but as they are driving away I’m sure they can bump into someone at the stoplight with an iPhone and it can give an idea of what direction the car is going. I just got my truck stolen last week, and I’m looking for options that could give me/police leads of where to go look. It sounds like a good option even if it is not 100% a GPS tracker
Pro-tip if you have CarPlay you can actually use Siri to find your car in a parking lot bc it remembers where you disconnected CarPlay. Just ask Siri “Where’s my car” and it’ll bring you to it. It’s not super accurate but its helped me a few times

You don't need car play for that. Google phones have been doing parking tracking for that last 5 years or so. Google phones use AI to detect when you're driving, and when you stop, they will pin your location on Google maps for when you stopped driving. That means you can drive a car 50 years old and still have park tracking.
Yes will be using the lost mode for car, laptop in briefcase so limited but cheap way to locate when another Apple device is nearby
My issue with these videos is the lack of real-world testing. Someone wondering if these things work wants to know if they actually work rather than just speculating based on what Apple says.

I thought that these apple tags were a gimmick, my wife a set of 4 as a gift. She put one in her purse one in our dog one in her office backpack and she uses another one in her luggage. We 'lost' our car once, tough we parked in a 3rd floor in the parking lot but it was in the 4th. We already toght that it was stolen it took us 20 minutes to think about using find my app and well we found our car. Also our golden retriever decided to take an adventure and escaped from the back yard something she has done a few times in the past. Instead of driving for a couple hours looking for her we just used the app.

You dont need to put it into lost mode to track it,
I got my car stolen a few weeks ago and I was able to recover it. Luckily in one piece. Just bought one of these for some piece of mind .
I live in California (LA Country) I recently bought one just in case my car were to ever be stolen. Since I live in the city and I would say majority of people have iPhones ID say gives me a good chance of tracking down my car or even search in a general area. I sure wouldn’t 100% rely on it but I would say that if you live in a very populated area like Los Angeles your chances of locating your vehicle is increased greatly.
6:15 it’ll help either way, because some people around the car at certain times maybe at stop signs stop lights or even driving by, will help ping the location

I’ve got mixed feelings on using it for theft security if a thief gets notified they’re being tracked. They may choose to ditch the vehicle instead of risking looking for the AirTag and getting caught whilst they do. An MO of professional thieves is to scan the vehicle for GPS or Bluetooth signals first and then plan where they take the vehicle to to search it for ten mins. With traditional hardwired tracker units there’s a limited number of places to conceal them and can easily be found by the professional thief. But then again some vehicle fleets advertise that the vehicle is tracked with a sticker on the vehicle to deter the opportunist thief so alerting the thief of the AirTag may be no bad thing if it panics them into ditching it. And some thieves may decide not to carry iPhones so they don’t transmit the AirTags position, in which case they won’t get alerted of the AirTag unless there’s an app to detect AirTags that android users could use ? I’d rather have one (or two) strategically hidden than have none at all.

I was actually going to use the air tag to track my truck when shipping my vehicle cross country. Now that I watched your video, it doesn't sound like air tag has the ability to do this kind of task. Most folks say the air tag is great, but only if it's near by and not somewhere far. If I'm wrong, can someone let me know.
If you lose your car in car parks like me everyday it’s a life saver. It remembers where I left it from when I walked away. It says 15 minutes ago or whatever but assuming my car didn’t drive away on its own it’s full proof.
Absolutely need to have in every car, especially only cost 30 bucks and no subscription.

I really don’t know what was going on in this video 99% of the time, I’ve had an airtag stashed away in my car for months now, I’ve never had to put it in lost mode to actively track it and it’s come in handy finding my car in parking lots (turns out we were two rows off from where I actually parked), also I’ve had slightly more frequent updating then the usual 10+ minutes, I’ve been getting updates within 6-8 minutes
I was also told android phones etc with same u1 spec can relay the air tag location as well so not just apple devices...bonus

seems you can use this to locate a parked car as well, the air tag will show last known location which would be where you parked and walked off.
This is still valuable because Tile requires the tile app. My husbands car was stolen and we had a tile in it. we had no luck because Tile is less popular than apple in general. So much of the population has apple.

This comment needs to go up top! I do appreciate that the anti-stalking feature exists. Without it, this widely accessible technology would've enabled a whole lot of privacy issues for millions of people around the globe.

So, I'd say that the anti-theft use case for the airtags still stands.

@@iamColaboy Yeah, you might want to think about another anti-theft device or two if parking it for long periods. No different than if you park your car at the airport or at a friend’s place, alarm gets set off…it’ll keep going off until the battery dies or someone takes a bat to it. AirTags are meant for everyday use and to be “at hand.” As are car alarms. They can only do so much as the user is willing/able to do. Hence why the average person completely ignores a car alarm these days, unless it’s not stopping. Most of the time they are set off by the user or something environmental (loud car passing by). Criminals don’t tend to go around setting them off on purpose. That would make them a pretty bad criminal. The point of them has become moot, especially if the user is not around to be alerted by it. AirTags are actually great in that way. Many people have iPhones, making the network really large. But they are not a “set it and forget it” solution. Also have to forget about/be okay with the fact that we’re always being tracked. Everything has it’s pros/cons. 🤷🏻♀️

To be honest bro if your car is stock Your insurance will give you the money but for somebody like me who has highly modified their vehicle it’s a completely different situation
What about the heat
The AirTag pings any phones Bluetooth. Hence how you can mail It an track it.
Short answer - Yes lol
Samsung smart tag is more accurate and it updates often where as air tag won't give you information after 30 minutes or more ..I've both

As long as the car thief doesn’t have an iPhone. It will inform them that there is a unaccounted AirTag following them.

I'd say thieves are much more likely to be cheap skates and own an Android.
Yes. I have an Apple Air Tag in my car.
Yep got one for each of my cars to track primarily if stolen. Fingers crossed I never need it. You raise some good points though. I still think as you mentioned that it’s not gonna hurt hey, and it may just help.

Best open them up and remove the speaker ( speaker magnet actually ) which takes a few minutes, otherwise the AirTag can start beeping after a few days, so could then be easily found and removed.
Someone steals your car and is notified that an airtag is following them, then they are presented and option to disable it 😂

@@Mouryum Hmm, I ever did follow up on that. Not sure what is better the fact that someone can follow you for three days? Or that I now know I could put one in my truck/car and maybe have three days to find it. Makes a cheap LoJack I guess.
