TBH sharing keys is a nightmare even without airTags. Honestly recommend each spouse gets their own key to each vehicle. Once my wife had her keys stolen and we made do for a year sharing my car key and it was hell (because both of us prefer the EV to the minivan).
I don't track keys but I track my wallet and my wife does not need or ever ask for that.

- bloggie 5y agoProximity unlocking does not rely on LTE, and still works. Remote unlocking using the app would not work, because it relies on LTE. So the car can still be unlocked and used as normal in areas where there is no cellular reception. This is not some egregious oversight.
