There are 3rd party trackers that work the same way from chipolo and pebblebee.

Why are they talking about this as if Apple were the first and only one to have this thing 💀 Samsung has had this for a long time too, this just makes it 100 times better because it expands the network to every Android device.

The Android "Save Parking" is a setting. I've noticed that many people mistakenly/unknowingly disable it when setting up the device or through a one-off action. I realized this because my phone asked me multiple times, which I declined. Then the day I needed it, it wasn't there. And after a few months I went through the settings and found it was disabled.

Samsung has location tags, and they are pretty good, too...

We use air tags for our dogs and I get a notification on my Android phone when we travel with the dogs. I didn't see an option to "trust the tracker" though.

4:45 oh same xD i have my Zenfone 9 but lug around a iPhone SE II to keep track of my airtags

I already have a few Samsung trackers. I hope those get integrated with the rest of the android tracker ecosystem, though I doubt it..

Still see things on the daily though as far as accuracy like the police dept in a sting operation kicking in a door on a stolen device that happen to be pinging but was inaccurate

Doesn't the apple maps already show your car if you have connected your iPhone with Bluetooth? Why would then one an airtag?

Hopeing this happens quick. Airtags are the only Apple product/service I use.

The where you parked is a reminder that you can ask to remember with google assistant. Or Google maps in the timeline you can trace back.

I always wondered.. if you got stolen smt with an airtag and the thief has an iPhone, don’t he gets the notification of an AirTag following .??

Does that mean air tags will be found by any android, right? What about the other way around? Tile, Samsung Smart Tags, will also be found/located by apple devices?

Question from an Android user regarding AirTags: Why would someone else get a notification about the presence of an Air tag if the owner is there as well? Shouldn't you only be notified if a tag is near you and the owner is away from it?

Makes me even more frustrated with the apple ecosystem.

Just wish we had this two years ago before my bike got stolen :/ I was seriously considering buying an iPhone just for the air tags.

At last, an alternative to Air Tag! I primarily use Android Auto, and when we reach, it prompts us to "Save Parking Location."

The reason why the EU opened up the app store was because of Apple actively participating in anti-competitive behavior, while neglecting to create any solution to tackle it (P.S. that DOES NOT equate to Apple being required to discontinue or make any of the technologies they've already created unavailable to their users). Why it would be the same case in regards to a niche feature, such as your phone being located with the help of your smart speaker, especially when there are already protocols and avenues available for third parties to implement that, but hardly any consumer demand at the moment, is beyond me.
