It has alerted me to the wallet being left behind, and a few times I've used the AirTag to find the wallet in the house.
The big downside to AirTags right now is missing family support. We hid AirTags on the kids' bikes, but only my wife can see them.
There's zero intersection between people who should be tracked and people who are able to ride bikes.
• They had phones^H^H^H^H^H tracking devices already, so…
I was recently existing an airplane, and realized I didn't have my wallet in my pocket. Folks were packing up behind me, and I was getting pressure from my family to start existing down the aisle. I wasn't sure if the wallet was somewhere in my carryon or on the floor of the plane. I was scrambling checking pockets of various carry on bags, etc. The I remembered I could ping it. Within seconds, I could hear the chirp and very quickly found it.
Highly recommend!
It was a little awkward at first to get used to my wallet not sitting as flat anymore but I got over it. Luckily, I’m not a person who stores months worth of receipts and 20 cards in my wallet like my father, so there’s plenty of space.
It’s definitely come in handy a few times!
