To do this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li> Remove the white plastic tab from the AirTag, <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Place it close to your iPhone or iPad, and follow the on-screen instructions to set it up and give it a name.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to track an AirTag<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s a guide on how to track an AirTag. To begin Open the Find My app on your iPhone or iPad. You can also open the Find My website on iCloud.com from any device with internet access:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Open the Find My app on your iPhone or iPad.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap on the &#8220;Items&#8221; tab at the bottom of the screen.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Look for the entry for the lost item and select it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If the item is within range of your device, you should see its current location on the map. If it&#8217;s not within range, the app will show you the last known location.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap on &#8220;Directions&#8221; to get turn-by-turn directions to the item&#8217;s location.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you&#8217;re still unable to find the item, you can put the AirTag into Lost Mode. This will lock the item and display a message with your contact information on the device of anyone who finds it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You can also enable notifications for when the AirTag is found by someone else&#8217;s device.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large has-custom-border\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/gtechbooster.com\/media\/2023\/05\/airtaged-bag-683x1024.webp\" alt=\"airtaged bag\" class=\"wp-image-19639\" style=\"border-radius:10px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gtechbooster.com\/media\/2023\/05\/airtaged-bag-683x1024.webp 683w, https:\/\/gtechbooster.com\/media\/2023\/05\/airtaged-bag-200x300.webp 200w, https:\/\/gtechbooster.com\/media\/2023\/05\/airtaged-bag-768x1152.webp 768w, https:\/\/gtechbooster.com\/media\/2023\/05\/airtaged-bag-1024x1536.webp 1024w, https:\/\/gtechbooster.com\/media\/2023\/05\/airtaged-bag-1365x2048.webp 1365w, https:\/\/gtechbooster.com\/media\/2023\/05\/airtaged-bag-1320x1980.webp 1320w, https:\/\/gtechbooster.com\/media\/2023\/05\/airtaged-bag-scaled.webp 1707w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">airtaged bag<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-palette-color-5-background-color has-background\">Look for the item that you attached the AirTag to on the list of items in the Find My app or website. If the item is nearby, you can play a sound on the AirTag to help you find it. If the item is not nearby, you can see the last known location of the AirTag on the map. If you have an iPhone 11 or later, you can use Precision Finding to get more accurate location information about the AirTag.
