The app does not scan in the background and will only display "airtags" that are in "lost mode".
- crackercrews 5y agoOh wow, it only displays airtags in lost mode? That means it's not very useful for discovering if someone is tracking you. A stalker isn't going to put the airtag in lost mode.
- longitudinal93 5y agoDoesn't the tracker go into lost mode 15 minutes after being separated from its paired device?
- olliej 5y agonope, that would mean stealing an AirTag would give you relatively immediate access to the victim's contact info.
- olliej 5y agothat's not what happens - see my other comments, but basically the only difference is that in lost mode the AirTag provides contact info.
- olliej 5y agoNo, that's not what happens. If your device detects the same AirTag traveling with you, despite not being paired to your account you will be notified about it, no matter what state it is in. /if/ the device is in lost mode you're provided with contact details.
