Anonymous Coward User ID: 79336278 United States 12/07/2022 03:57 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I keep an airtag in my own car so I don't have to look or remember where I parked it and it doesn't work more than half the time. Maybe it's a POS, maybe it's because apple thinks I am stalking myself. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79336278 They have like a 100 yard range. They are useless. no, other apple phones in the vicinity are supposed to detect it for me. then its location is reported to apple's icloud and i am supposed to be able to look it up. |

They need to be within range of an iphone to connect to the system. Apparently any iphone. I read they work great in a crowded city but not so good in rural areas. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 12762317 United States 12/07/2022 04:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | If a gun manufacturer can be sued when their product works correctly, just wrongly, makes sense that apple can be sued. Quoting: Acinnc 79192717 Anyone can sue anyone else for anything. Apple has a whole building full of lawyers who just dick around with these nonsensical lawsuits every day. The sad part is that the real costs, like clogging the courts, and taxpayer funded judges, court personnell etc. are not recouped by the 'filing fees'. |

Dad went in instead and boooooy it got uncomfortable quick....bit they're good at getting away too. Pretty sure its WELL known these devices are used in kidnappings world wide. there is ZERO way apple doesn't know this is going on. they're either complicit or don't care. |

I think any wireless network can detect, not just iphones. you could use it for Uber, it's really helps to find the rider, if they choose to activate it you can locate their phone whether you have iphone or not so.... there's all kinds of stuff they can do obviously but they set it up so it's accuracy was not that great, I had a feeling that was intentional, i think they actually have the ability to pinpoint them to exact locations, but if they are inside buildings there are things that throw it off. I think that's why the 5G is such a big deal, it's got all those bugs worked out. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 77781609 United States 12/07/2022 05:55 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | There is a Tracker Detect app that you can put on your phone to scan the immediate area for tracking devices. It was put out by Apple. Quoting: *SaintIn [link to play.google.com (secure)] I looked at the reviews, and apparently there's some better apps out there. |

They didn't bother locating missing/stolen phones in the past so they may not even request a warrant because they won't do a search anyway. |
