So if a friend lends me some keys with one of these attached and I don't have the right kind of phone on me, the keys will start beeping incessantly? That seems pretty darn annoying.
- katbyte 6y agoi think only if they are marked lost?
- gnicholas 6y agoNo, it's an anti-stalking feature, so it's triggered when it's been away from the owner for some unspecified period of time, and only when the tag is moved. If someone is using AirTags to stalk someone, they would never mark as lost, which is why beeping isn't tied to this status.

- adamlett 6y agoSo maybe ask your friend to take off the AirTag if you have to borrow their keys for more than a few days?
