What will Australian kids eat if they can't get the button batteries out?
I like this. If you have to worry/be concerned about losing your keys/wallet, just don't lose them!
Got a tip for us?

Can an AirTag help you find the correct indefinite article?
I think all the mainstream non-tech press about stalkers misusing them actually helped many people become aware that there is such a product for their legitimate uses.
This is a great product IMHO, EXCEPT that you can't share it with family members. It's supremely annoying. Tile has always allowed that... you know you already can see trackers near you so this shouldn't be that hard. C'mon Apple, do what you do and charge us again for a simple feature in V.2
AirTag is a good product. But don’t know what else can be improved upon in a future model.
You're not reading. Apple is purposely discouraging the kinds of use that AirTag is NOT for by not allowing family sharing/tracking. Since tracking your keys has no desperate need of being available to your whole family, Apple can easily withhold the feature as a means of mitigating the bigger problem.
If Apple lets your whole family track your keys, you gain a minor feature that you don't need really need. If Apple lets people track any AirTag being used for any purpose across family, they enable and encourage a bunch of use cases that they are actively discouraging in every other way (including this one).
I would love to see a rechargeable/wallet friendly Apple-made AirTag card…
I'm trying to understand your argument I'm just not following. If I have an airtag on a set of my car keys, and they get lost in our home, and I'm away for work, why would that feature not be helpful to my wife who is trying to track down my keys?
🙄They are not the first Airtag to be shipped or flown on a plane. Many people even use them on their luggage which also works very well.
No, you're not trying. You're obsessed with your keys, and making it about your keys. You're not reading.
You're just not able to follow this conversation, which is fine. Bow out.
Family sharing should be totally possible. The AirTag is registered to my phone. If my children each have an AirTag in their bag and they have their phones on them, surely, through family sharing and find my, their phones can recognise an encrypted identifier from the air tag. That way, I can see if they get lost when they’re on, say, a school trip to the city for a few days, and they can carry the tag without it having to notify them that they are being stalked. This seems like a no-brainer to me. It requires family sharing, and everybody having their own iPhone, but it works, seems to make sense, and could be implemented, right?
