For those wondering how well they work in a relatively slim wallet.

Without an Airtag

IMG_0487.jpeg


With an Airbag in the coin purse (I took out a few coins I had in my wallet as I have not used cash in about 3 months).

AirTag in wallet feels fine. Hopefully will never have to remember where I put my wallet again.
 
Should be getting mine and a couple of key holders (one fancy leather, one belkin) in an hour or two!

For those who do not have an iPhone without a U1 chip. The location finder defaults to the same interface as find my friend. I had the AirTag in the next room when I took the screenshot and the direction indicator gave me a rough idea of the direction to go in. Then use the Play Sound button to locate your AirTag - Works pretty well. I Plan to upgrade to a U1 iPhone later this year to be able to use the more accurate advanced location tool.

Just a heads up: I know this might sound silly, but I wasn't really listening out for a knock at the door or anything like that, because I assumed the AirTags would be small enough they'd just fit through the letter box. However, the box they ship in is quite big (considering the size of the actual AirTags packaging) so the delivery person had to knock on the door & I had to accept delivery. Just in case any of you were planning on stepping out to the shops or whatever under the assumption they'd just put it through the letter box.

Mine arrived, setup in 10 seconds, super straight forward.

Fits in wallet.

ABSOLUTELY loving asking Siri where my wallet is :)
Yeah that’s brilliant. I just tried it and it works really well. I asked Siri where my car keys were and my HomePod picked it up and transferred to my phone and the ‘Find my” kicked in

Good info. Sounds like they are still very functional without a U1 iPhone. Thanks!
 
Anyone planning to use these things to track their AirPods case? The built in find my AirPods is useless, and wondering if you name an Airtag 'AirPods' whether it will confuse things with Siri.

That is my intention.

I don't have a key chain yet to be able to attach it to my AirPods but in a worst-case scenario, if it does confuse Siri I might just name the AirTag "Headphones" or something generic.
 
Mine just arrived. Don't have a keychain yet (waiting on an eBay delivery). Stuck it in my wallet after seeing the above and works really well. Guess I'm going to have to order another 🤦‍♂️

Mine have arrived with the Black Belkin keyring. Smaller than I thought and seem good. Not sure about keyring as looks a bit cheap. Anyone got any real life pics of the red Apple leather keyring??...... tempted to order!!!

Red keyring is nice, although it's quite big and sits perpendicular to my other keys which is annoying. How do other men carry around car keys and house keys without a bag?!

May end up separating my car key from my other keys, but still want to be able to track both. This road probably leads to me buying another AirTag...

I added a tiny little clip thing to mine and stops the keys acting up, I can also leave the car key at home too.

Got mine coming in an hour or so according to DPD. Pack of 4. Can't wait to play around with one. Popping out to get my second vaccine shot later today so I'll pop an AirTag in my bag and see how well it works.

Belkin keyring will take a few more weeks according to Apple though.
 
Just got mine, I’m in Ireland so same delivery time really.. Love them, they are so nice, lighter than I thought and the leather keyring is beautiful, well worth the money!
