I've ordered a set of 4 AirTags.

  • My Car Keys
  • Girlfriends Car Keys
  • My Wallet
  • Girfriends Purse
Fairly frequently she will use my car and I will use her car.

If I take her keys, will I have issues with the Anti Stalking mode?

Ideally we could link both sets of keys to both accounts, but I am guessing that's a big ask?

If the AirTag is attached to an item you're borrowing, you can tap Pause Safety Alerts to turn off "AirTag Detected" notifications for one day. If you're borrowing an AirTag from a member of your Family Sharing group, you can turn off Safety Alerts for one day or indefinitely.

This seems a bit annoying and cumbersome, if you're in a family does it still do this? or is it smart enough to realise you are related / in the same household. Or the ability to set trusted people or something.

Is stated in the post, it uses family sharing. If you are in a family sharing group then you just need to do it once.

Can you please show me where this setting is to disable it indefinitely for family members?

I have Airtags on our family keychains. I would expect to be able to disable it as you stated but can’t find a setting for that.

Secondly, and more practically, I’d like my family members to be able to have the option to find the keys to the car when I’m not around. This is a major letdown for me and I’m sure many others.

This isn't something that I've done, but my understanding is that you need to wait for the warning to appear for the first time and then you get the option of disabling not for the day or permanently. You can't change it in advance of the first warning.
