One of Apple’s most talked about products in recent years is AirTag. AirTag, which can be attached to handbags, keys, backpacks and similar items, helps to find a lost item by connecting to the wide global Find My network.
What does this little device from Apple do?
The circular AirTag is very useful with its small and light structure. While its built-in speaker sounds for you to find the AirTag, this little device promises quite a long battery life. The stainless steel AirTag also has an IP67 water and dust resistance rating. So how many meters range does the AirTag have?
AirTag, introduced by Apple in 2021, also includes Bluetooth 5.0 technology. The Bluetooth 5.0 technology has a range of 240 meters under optimum conditions. And yet, we can say a similar maximum range for AirTag. However, considering the general situations, it would be more accurate to describe the range of this device as 100 meters in general terms.
On the other hand, since AirTag can be detected by other Apple products, it may be wrong to actually make any range restrictions. Because AirTags can be detected by other Apple devices if they are considered lost. In this way, it is possible to find your AirTag connected item thanks to other Apple users, whether you are at the other end of the world.
