Now that daylight saving time is over, there is more sunshine to enjoy, which brings with it spring vacation and summer vacations. After months of monotonous work, traveling may be thrilling and rejuvenating, but nothing is worse than having a fantastic time only to have it destroyed by losing your personal items. You should learn about all the advantages that Apple AirTags provide if you wish to travel with peace of mind and an additional layer of protection for your belongings.

These tiny devices can identify anything like a bag, handbag, baggage, or keys since they are small enough to be undetectable. You don’t need to do much more when they are installed on your phone, and they are rather simple to set up. Here are several unusual ways to make the most of AirTags that you may not have thought of, in addition to the primary methods already discussed.

How are AirTags operated?

To locate your AirTag, you usually need to be within Bluetooth range. However, if your AirTag is further away, you may use Apple’s Find My service to find it as long as it’s still within range of another Apple device. (The Find My network operates as follows.) Simply place your AirTag in Lost Mode to do this, and you’ll get a message as soon as it’s inside the Find My network’s coverage area.

Five unusual locations for your AirTags 🏕 When camping, attach an AirTag to your tent.
It could be helpful to put an AirTag inside your tent so you can quickly locate your campsite if you’re camping somewhere you haven’t been before. For example, you may utilize Find My to find the last position of the AirTag (your tent) and get instructions back to the campground if you decide to trek a few kilometers one day. Don’t depend on this in the woods since it will need to be within range of someone else’s gadget. (This is also the reason Apple recommends against using AirTags on pets.)

Place a tracker in the pocket of your jacket.

How many times have you been to a restaurant, pub, or friend’s home and forgotten your coat? It’s easy to forget to bring your jacket when you leave, particularly if the temperature is higher than you anticipated or you’re occupied with leftovers and take-out cups. Put an AirTag in the pocket of your jacket so you can track where you left it if you know you’ll be hanging it on a coat rack or the back of a chair when you get there. By doing this, you may be able to avoid losing another beloved jacket and spend less money on a replacement.

Keep an AirTag in your baggage. 🧳

Navigating an airport may be challenging, particularly if you’re looking for the right baggage pickup location. Sometimes your luggage go misplaced, and other times you have to wait half an hour for them to eventually roll out on the conveyor belt. You may place an AirTag tracker inside your baggage to monitor its whereabouts and reduce the anxiety that comes with attempting to find it.

This may assist you in determining if your bags were left on the aircraft, whether they are on the conveyor belt but you haven’t seen them yet, or whether your baggage was inadvertently stolen. You may fix the problem and go to your destination once you know where your baggage are. There shouldn’t be any problems packing AirTags in your baggage since they are TSA-approved.

Unlock the laptop bag.
To prevent losing your laptop, place an AirTag inside your backpack. Place a tracker inside the bag that holds your laptop.
When you’re getting coffee for everyone at the office, it’s easy to forget your laptop bags in a café. It’s difficult to remember to take your luggage from the booth you were sitting in while your hands are full and you’re preoccupied with how you’re going to unlock your vehicle door. Putting an AirTag inside one of the pockets is thus a smart idea. You will be able to find your pricey laptop and save any private or sensitive business data in your luggage.

Keep an AirTag hidden on your bike.

If you haven’t experienced it yourself, you most likely know someone who has. When you arrive home after a bike ride, you forget all about the bike you left outside and go inside to get some food and drink. Or maybe you left your bike unlocked while you were in the shop, and when you returned, it was gone. You can quickly find an AirTag if you put it in a secret location on the bike.

We advise against attempting to locate the bicycle on your own. To stay out of danger, it’s preferable to call the police and allow them to come get your bike. If your automobile has been stolen, towed, or you can’t recall where you parked it, this approach will still work. Your iPhone can find where you last left it if it is Bluetooth-enabled and linked to your automobile.
