Did the carpenter alter the tags?! Afaik they beep sounds around other unpaired iphones, additionally, using apps like AirGuard can alarm you about such ones.

- mcpherrinm 2y agoIf they were in a storage unit, the thief may not have stuck around long enough to notice. And it sounds like this happened pretty soon after theft, so they wouldn’t have started to beep.
- bagels 2y agoIt takes 3 minutes to remove the speaker. There are great tutorials on youtube. I've only purchased airtags for use as theft recovery, and if they beep it defeats the purpose.
- swah 2y agoI also have one on a office key (useful, it vanishes every few months), umbrella (useful, its left in restaurants and vanishes in the car trunk), laptop bag (useless so far, I never forget about it), and car (waiting for it to be robbed but its old)
- gnicholas 2y agoDon’t iPhones pop up notifications if there’s an AirTag that doesn’t belong to you following you around?
- ssl-3 2y agoThey do. And they'll even use RF locating techniques to draw an arrow on the screen that points at the AirTag (so that it can be found and destroyed). Taking the speakers out of AirTags doesn't really improve the situation much; at best, it seems kind of naive.
- duxup 2y agoDid the thieves bring their phone with them to steal from numerous job sites as far back as 2014? That would seem like a poor choice. If the same thieves are taking everything they might be "smart" enough to NOT bring a personal tracking device with them.
