The iPhone app does have a pretty accurate Tag-finding feature. So disabling the speaker doesn't preclude a victim being notified of tracking and finding the device.
But, that's on Apple. There's only a very limited [official Apple] app available on Android - it lacks automatic notification of being tracked - victim has to manually scan for Tags. I don't know how well it can precisely locate the Tags.
EDIT - added "official Apple" in brackets above.

- daemoens 4y agoNo they don't. Besides the obvious flaw of having to download and open an app to check if you're being tracked, they just don't work. They all have sub 2.5 ratings on the app store. The only ones on that list that don't have terrible ratings are general bluetooth scanners and they don't tell you that you're being tracked, just that there's one nearby. Compare that to iPhones where you'll get a notification if one is following your movement, they're functionally useless if you don't think you're being tracked.
